Metallics JHTBG2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JHTBG2 hex tap bolt take, and will a standard 1/4-20 nut fit it?
The JHTBG2 is a 1/4-20 bolt, 20 threads per inch, cut to the IFI-199 (2014) thread standard. Any standard 1/4-20 UNC nut or tapped 1/4-20 hole will take it. Overall length is 1 inch, and because it is a tap bolt it is threaded the full length rather than having a plain shank under the head.
2) What grade or strength are the Metallics JHTBG2 hex tap bolts?
Tensile strength is 60,000 psi minimum with a hardness of Rockwell B69 to B100. That corresponds to a standard low carbon steel commercial bolt rather than a heat treated high strength one, so for structural connections calling out Grade 5 or Grade 8 you need a different bolt.
3) Are these bolts suitable for outdoor or damp electrical work, like strut and conduit hangers on an exterior wall?
The JHTBG2 is galvanized steel, so it holds up in damp and exterior locations far better than a plain finish bolt. For a 1/4-20 fastener in strut, hanger, and conduit support work that is the usual choice. For continuous saltwater exposure or submerged service, stainless is the better call.
4) How many bolts come in a jar, and can I buy fewer than 100?
They ship as a jar of 100 pieces, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Other sizes and quantities are available by request if you need a different length or pack.
5) Do these Metallics hex tap bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public project?
The JHTBG2 is flagged as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant in Metallics' data, with country of origin China. On a federally funded job, submit those compliance flags with your package since the governing clause varies by contract.
6) Is a hex tap bolt the same thing as a hex cap screw, and which should I order for a tapped hole?
A tap bolt is threaded all the way to the head, which is what you want when threading into a tapped hole or a strut nut where you need engagement right up against the bearing surface. A hex cap screw leaves an unthreaded shank, better where you want the shank bearing in a reamed hole. The Metallics JHTBG2 is the fully threaded hex style in 1/4-20 x 1, galvanized.
7) How much does a jar of 100 of these 1/4-20 x 1 bolts weigh for shipping?
A full jar of 100 weighs 794 g. The jar itself measures 3 inches in length, 2.7 inches in height, and 76.2 mm in width.
