Metallics JG5HTB6 Bolts 1/4-20 X 3 G5 Hx Tap Blt St-zn (Jar 100)

Yes. A hex tap bolt is fully threaded, which is what separates it from a partially threaded hex cap screw of the same 1/4-20 x 3 inch size. Full thread means you can set your grip length wherever you need it and run a nut up from either direction, and it works in a tapped hole at any depth within the 3 inch length. Threads are 20 per inch, right hand, to ASME B18.2.1-2012.

Grade 5 medium carbon steel, heat treated, with a minimum tensile strength of 105,000 psi and hardness of Rockwell C19-30. That is the common structural grade for machinery mounting, and this bolt is specifically used to fasten motors to equipment as well as in automotive and truck repair. If your drawing calls for Grade 8, this is not a substitute.

Zinc plating over steel gives moderate corrosion resistance, fine for indoor machine rooms, panel and equipment mounting, and general shop work. For continuous wet exposure, coastal air, or chemical contact, go to 18-8 stainless in the same hex tap bolt pattern rather than the zinc plated steel version.

They ship 100 to a jar, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. The filled jar weighs 1823 g. Other sizes and quantities in the G5HTB and JG5HTB series are available by request if 1/4-20 x 3 inch is not the length you need.

The JG5HTB6 is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American in the manufacturer's data, with country of origin listed as China. On federally funded work, hand those two values plus the origin to your compliance reviewer, because the applicable rule varies by funding program.

Low to medium carbon steel in the AISI 1008 to 1026 range, heat treated to reach Grade 5 properties, with 105,000 psi minimum yield. Plated zinc over the steel body.
