Metallics JBHC7PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the JBHC7PL bolt pass through a 1/4 inch drilled hole?
Body diameter is 0.237 to 0.260 in., so a true 1/4 inch (0.250) hole is marginal and may bind on the upper end of that range. Drill 9/32 or 5/16 for a clearance fit, which is normal practice for a 1/4 inch bolt through strut, channel, or sheet steel.
2) Is this bolt plated or bare steel, and can I use it outdoors?
Plain steel, no plating or coating. Keep it to dry indoor work: panel boards, enclosures, indoor strut and channel runs. For damp, exterior, or wash-down locations, specify a zinc plated or stainless 1/4-20 hex bolt instead, since plain steel will rust.
3) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC7PL, and can I buy fewer?
It ships as a jar of 100 bolts, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities in the BHC and JBHC series by request.
4) Does this Metallics hex bolt meet Buy American and ARRA requirements on a public project?
The JBHC7PL is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American in Metallics' product data, with country of origin listed as China. If your specification requires domestic melt and manufacture rather than the ARRA/Buy American designation, confirm that distinction with your specifying authority before submitting it.
5) Are nuts or washers included with the JBHC7PL?
No. The jar contains 100 plain steel 1/4-20 hex bolts only. Order 1/4-20 hex nuts and any flat or lock washers separately.
6) How much usable grip does a 3-1/2 inch long 1/4-20 bolt give me?
At 3-1/2 inches of shank length, this one is meant for stacked or thick assemblies, strut sandwiches, spacers, through-bolting multiple layers, hanging rod and channel work. For simple single-layer enclosure fastening a 3-1/2 inch bolt leaves a lot of exposed thread; a shorter length from the same BHC and JBHC series is the better call there.
7) What does a jar of 100 of these bolts weigh for shipping or stocking a van?
Metallics lists the packaged weight at 5.19 lbs for the 100 count jar.
