Metallics JBHC5PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC5PL hex bolt take, and will a standard 1/4-20 nut fit it?
It's a 1/4-20 hex bolt, 20 threads per inch on a 1/4 inch nominal diameter, made to ASME B18.2.1-1996. Any standard 1/4-20 UNC nut or tapped hole mates with it. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.237 to 0.260 inch.
2) Is the Metallics JBHC5PL plain steel or is it galvanized? Can I use it outdoors?
Plain finish steel, no coating. Keep it to dry interior work, panel and enclosure mounting, strut and bracket assembly. For exposed or damp locations you want a hot dip galvanized or stainless 1/4-20 hex bolt instead, since bare steel will start rusting.
3) Does the Metallics JBHC5PL meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a federal job?
The JBHC5PL carries both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant flags in its product record. Country of origin is China, so if your specification demands domestic melt and manufacture rather than the broader compliance category, confirm which standard your contract is written to before you submit it.
4) What wrench or socket size do I need for these 1/4-20 hex bolts?
Across-flats head width measures 0.425 to 0.438 inch, so a 7/16 inch wrench or socket is the one to grab. Corner-to-corner the head runs 0.484 to 0.505 inch, worth knowing if you're setting them in a tight channel or a crowded strut run.
5) How many bolts come in a jar and can I buy fewer than 100?
The JBHC5PL ships as a jar of 100 bolts, and 100 count is the order minimum, so it's sold by the full jar rather than loose by the piece. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JBHC5PL hex bolts?
No. The jar holds 100 plain steel hex bolts only. Order matching 1/4-20 hex nuts, and flat or lock washers if your assembly calls for them, as separate line items.
7) What does a jar of 100 of these 1/4-20 bolts weigh for shipping?
3.81 lbs for the jar of 100. Jar dimensions are 5.75 x 3.5 x 3.5 inches, so a case of them stacks compactly on a service van shelf or in a job box.
