Metallics JBHC4G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC4G 1/4-20 hex bolt use, and will standard 1/4-20 nuts thread onto it?
The JBHC4G is a 1/4-20 hex bolt, meaning a 1/4 inch nominal diameter with 20 threads per inch, cut to ASME B18.2.1-1996. Any standard 1/4-20 UNC nut, coupling nut, or 1/4-20 tapped channel will thread onto it. Measured shank outside diameter runs 0.237 to 0.260 inch.
2) Does this Metallics hex bolt meet Buy American and ARRA requirements on a federal or publicly funded job?
Metallics flags the BHC and JBHC hex bolts as compliant for both Buy American and ARRA purposes. Country of origin on the part is China, so if your specification demands domestic melt and manufacture rather than the compliance flag, confirm against the exact clause in your contract documents.
3) Can I use the JBHC4G galvanized hex bolt outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
It is a steel bolt with a galvanized finish, so it holds up better than plain or bright-finish steel in damp interiors, unheated spaces, and covered exterior locations. For continuous saltwater exposure or submerged work, stainless is the usual choice instead.
4) What wrench or socket size fits the head on this 1/4-20 hex bolt?
The hex head measures 0.425 to 0.438 inch across the flats, which is the 7/16 inch wrench or socket size standard for a 1/4-20 hex bolt. A 7/16 combination wrench, nut driver, or impact socket drives it.
5) How thick a material can a 2 inch long 1/4-20 hex bolt clamp through?
Shank length is 2 inches, so the practical grip is that 2 inches minus whatever the nut and any washers take up. In Unistrut, channel, box, or bracket work that covers stacked sheet, spacers, and a couple of washers comfortably; if you are through-bolting a 2x framing member plus a bracket, step up to a longer length.
6) How does the JBHC4G come packed, and what is the minimum I can order?
These ship 100 bolts in a jar, and the order minimum is 100 count, so a jar is the buying unit. The packed jar weighs 3.17 lbs. The jar format is aimed at a service van or a shop bin rather than bulk box quantities.
7) Are these hex bolts sold with nuts and washers?
No. The JBHC4G jar contains 100 hex bolts only, so order 1/4-20 nuts and 1/4 inch washers separately to complete the assembly. Match the galvanized finish on the nuts and washers to avoid mixing coatings in a damp location.
8) I need the same galvanized hex bolt in a different length or a bigger quantity. Is that available?
Yes. The BHC and JBHC hex bolt program runs other sizes and quantities by request, so if you need 1/4-20 in a shorter or longer shank, or a larger pack than the 100 count jar, it can be quoted. The JBHC4G itself is fixed at 1/4-20 x 2 inch galvanized.
