Metallics JHTB6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JHTB6 hex tap bolt?
The JHTB6 is a 1/4-20 hex tap bolt, 3 inches long, with 20 threads per inch and a right hand thread. Thread conforms to IFI-199 (2014). Because it is a tap bolt, the thread runs the full length of the shank rather than stopping short, so you get complete thread engagement into a tapped hole or nut at any grip depth.
2) Do Metallics JHTB6 hex tap bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements?
No. The JHTB6 is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your government, transit or federally funded project carries a domestic sourcing clause, these will not qualify.
3) What wrench or socket size fits the JHTB6 hex tap bolt head?
Head width across flats measures 0.425 to 0.438 inch, which is the standard 7/16 inch hex for a 1/4-20 bolt. A 7/16 socket or open end wrench drives it. Width across corners runs 0.484 to 0.505 inch, worth knowing if you are working inside a channel or strut where clearance is tight.
4) Are these bolts suitable for outdoor or damp mechanical room use?
The JHTB6 is steel with a zinc finish, which handles indoor and sheltered damp conditions. Zinc plated steel will eventually rust in direct weather exposure, salt air or wash down areas. For those, move to an 18-8 stainless hex tap bolt in the same 1/4-20 x 3 size.
5) How many bolts come in a jar and can I buy fewer than 100?
These ship 100 pieces to a jar, and the jar is the order minimum, so 100 is the smallest quantity. Packaged weight for the full jar is 1760 g. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) What is a hex tap bolt used for versus a regular hex cap screw?
A tap bolt is threaded the entire length instead of having a plain shoulder under the head, so it engages threads no matter how thick the material being clamped. That is why these get used for electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work: threading into strut nuts, beam clamps, hanger hardware and tapped equipment holes where you cannot predict grip length. A partially threaded cap screw is the better choice when you want the unthreaded shank bearing in a shear joint.
7) Do nuts or washers come with the JHTB6 bolts?
The jar contains the 1/4-20 x 3 hex tap bolts only. If you are bolting through rather than into a tapped hole, order 1/4-20 hex nuts and flat or lock washers in a matching zinc finish separately so the plating is consistent across the joint.
