Metallics JSBH412 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread and size is the Metallics JSBH412 hex bolt, and will it take a standard 1/4-20 nut?
The JSBH412 is a 1/4-20 hex bolt, 3 inches long, with 20 threads per inch and a shank outside diameter of 0.2450 to 0.2500 inch. That is standard 1/4-20 UNC, so any 1/4-20 nut or tapped 1/4-20 hole mates with it.
2) Is the Metallics JSBH412 bolt 18-8 stainless or 316 stainless?
The JSBH412 is 18-8 stainless steel. Both 18-8 and 316 are austenitic alloys used where general atmospheric corrosion resistance is needed, but if your environment is marine or chemically aggressive you should be specifying 316 or another corrosion resistant alloy instead, not this one.
3) How strong is this stainless hex bolt, and is it strong enough for a structural connection?
Tensile strength runs 100,000 to 150,000 psi minimum with a 65,000 psi minimum yield, and hardness is Rockwell B95 to C32. That is good general-purpose fastening strength for electrical, plumbing and HVAC equipment mounting. It is not a graded structural bolt, so for a structural steel connection you want a specified structural fastener, not a stainless cap screw.
4) Is the Metallics JSBH412 bolt Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The JSBH412 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your project carries a domestic sourcing requirement, this jar will not satisfy it and you need a domestic-origin stainless hex bolt instead.
5) What wrench or socket size fits the head on this 1/4-20 stainless hex bolt?
Head width across flats measures 0.428 to 0.438 inch, which is a 7/16 inch wrench or socket.
6) Can I use a 1/4-20 stainless hex bolt outdoors or in a food processing area?
Yes for general outdoor and wash-down duty. 18-8 stainless cap screws like the JSBH412 are used in equipment requiring general atmospheric corrosion resistance, including chemical and food-processing equipment. Some chemical environments still call for special corrosion resistant materials and added precautions, so check the chemistry you are exposing it to.
7) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JSBH412, and can I buy fewer?
They ship as a jar of 100. The jar is the order minimum, so 100 pieces is the smallest quantity. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
8) Does the Metallics 1/4-20 x 3 stainless hex bolt come with nuts or washers?
No. The jar contains 100 hex bolts only. Nuts, flat washers and lock washers in 1/4-20 stainless are separate line items, so add them to the order if the connection needs them.
9) What trades normally stock 1/4-20 x 3 stainless hex bolts like this?
Electrical, plumbing, and heating and air conditioning work is the stated field application. In practice that is strut and channel hangers, equipment feet, panel and enclosure mounting, and anywhere a corrosion resistant 1/4-20 through-bolt is needed. A jar of 100 suits an MRO crib or a service van rather than a single install.
