Metallics JSBH5 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and pitch is the Metallics JSBH5 hex bolt?
It's a 1/4-20 bolt, so 20 threads per inch on a nominal 1/4 inch body. Measured shank diameter runs 0.2450 to 0.2500 inch, which is standard UNC 1/4-20 and will thread into any 1/4-20 nut, strut channel nut, or tapped hole.
2) Will stainless hex bolts hold up outdoors or in a wash-down area?
The JSBH5 is 18-8 austenitic stainless, which handles general atmospheric corrosion, which is why it shows up on chemical and food-processing equipment. For aggressive chemical exposure, go to 316 stainless instead; 18-8 is not a cure-all in those environments.
3) Are these stainless hex bolts Buy American or ARRA compliant for a public project?
No. The JSBH5 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your job carries domestic-sourcing language, this is not the fastener to put on it.
4) How strong is a 1/4-20 18-8 stainless bolt compared to a plated Grade 5 bolt?
The Metallics 18-8 stainless hex bolt runs 100,000 to 150,000 psi minimum tensile with a 65,000 psi minimum yield and hardness of Rockwell B95 to C32. That puts it in the same tensile neighborhood as a Grade 5 fastener but with a noticeably lower yield, so it's a corrosion-driven choice, not a high-torque structural one. For load-critical bolted connections, spec a Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JSBH5, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100 pieces, and the jar is the order minimum, so one jar is the smallest buy. Jar weight is 608 g. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) What trades actually use these 1/4-20 stainless hex bolts?
Metallics catalogs the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt line for the electrical, plumbing, and heating and air conditioning trades. Typical use is a 1/4-20 machine thread into strut nuts, enclosure and panel hardware, hanger and bracket assemblies, and equipment mounting where a nut or tapped hole is on the other side. It's a machine-thread bolt, not a sheet metal or wood screw, so you need a mating thread.
7) Does the Metallics JSBH5 come with nuts or washers?
No. JSBH5 is the bolt only, 100 to the jar. Order 1/4-20 stainless hex nuts and any flat or lock washers separately, and match them in 18-8 stainless so you don't set up a dissimilar-metal problem in a wet location.
