Metallics JBHC5G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics JBHC5G 1/4-20 hex bolt thread into a standard 1/4-20 nut or strut channel nut?
Yes. The JBHC5G is cut at 20 threads per inch on a 1/4 inch diameter, which is the standard 1/4-20 UNC coarse thread, so it mates with any 1/4-20 nut, channel nut, or tapped hole. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.237 to 0.260 inch, within normal 1/4 inch bolt tolerance. Threads are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996.
2) Does this Metallics hex bolt qualify for Buy American or ARRA-funded jobs?
The JBHC5G is flagged as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, which is what a government, school district, or federally funded project submittal normally asks for on fasteners. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
3) Is the 1/4-20 x 2-1/2 galvanized hex bolt long enough to go through strut plus a mounting bracket?
At 2-1/2 inches of bolt length it clears a typical 1-5/8 inch strut channel plus a bracket and nut, which is why it gets specified on electrical, plumbing, and HVAC support work. Nuts and washers are not part of the jar, so order 1/4-20 nuts and flat or lock washers separately to finish the connection.
4) Is a galvanized Grade 2 bolt the right choice for damp or outdoor electrical work, or do I need stainless?
The JBHC5G is galvanized steel, which is the usual pick for damp locations, outdoor strut runs, and exterior conduit supports where plain zinc-plated hardware would rust out. It is Grade 2, the standard low-carbon strength class used for general support and mounting work rather than high-tension structural connections. For continuous saltwater exposure or chemical duty, stainless is the better material.
5) How does the Metallics JBHC5G hex bolt come packaged, and what is the minimum order?
These ship in a jar of 100 bolts, and 100 count is the order minimum. The jar keeps loose hardware together on a service van or in a shop bin instead of spilling in a bag. Other sizes and quantities can be requested.
6) How much does a jar of 100 Metallics JBHC5G bolts weigh for shipping or van stocking?
A full jar of 100 weighs 3.91 pounds, and the jar itself measures 3.5 x 3.5 x 5.75 inches, so it fits a standard van shelf bin or a gang box tray without repacking.
