Metallics JBLS1G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can a 1/4 x 1-1/2 galvanized hex lag bolt be used outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
Yes. The Metallics JBLS1G lag bolt is galvanized steel and is called out for use in corrosive environments, so exterior anchoring, damp mechanical rooms, and coastal or washdown areas are within its intended use. Bare zinc-plated lags are the cheaper choice for dry interior work.
2) What size pilot hole does a 1/4 inch hex lag bolt need?
Size the pilot to the shank, not the thread. The JBLS1G measures 0.237 to 0.260 inch outside diameter over the threads with 10 threads per inch, right hand, and a gimlet point. In softwood a 5/32 inch pilot is normal practice; in hardwood or dense framing go to 3/16 inch so the head does not strip or snap the bolt while driving.
3) Are these lag bolts rated for anchoring into concrete or masonry?
No. A full-bodied hex lag with spaced threads and a gimlet point is a wood fastener. It is cut to thread into wood framing, blocking, or plywood. For concrete, block, or brick you need a concrete screw or a lag shield insert with the lag driven into the shield.
4) Do Metallics JBLS1G lag bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public project?
No. These lags are flagged as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic-content clause, specify a domestic lag instead of this one.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBLS1G, and can I buy fewer?
They ship as a jar of 100, and the jar is the minimum order quantity. Metallics also notes that other sizes and quantities in the BLS and JBLS lag series are available by request, so a different length or pack size can be sourced rather than buying several jars.
6) What is the strength of a Metallics galvanized hex lag bolt?
Minimum tensile strength is 60,000 psi, with hardness in the Rockwell B70 to B100 range. The steel is to AISI 1006 to 1022 and the bolt is made to the ASME B18.2.1-1996 dimensional standard, so heads and threads interchange with other lags built to that spec.
7) What trades use the Metallics BLS and JBLS hex lag bolts?
They are stocked for electrical, plumbing, heating, and air conditioning work: hanging strut and unistrut, anchoring box and panel backing, securing pipe clamps and equipment stands to wood framing. The galvanized finish is what makes it the pick for rooftop and exterior mechanical mounting over a plain plated lag.
