Metallics JBLS37G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the Metallics JBLS37G 1/4 inch lag bolt be used outdoors or in damp locations?
Yes. The JBLS37G is a galvanized steel lag bolt, and Metallics calls it out for use in corrosive environments. That covers exterior mounting, damp mechanical rooms, and coastal or wash-down areas where a plain zinc-plated bolt would bloom rust.
2) What size pilot hole do I drill for a 1/4 inch hex lag bolt into wood?
Size the pilot to the bolt's shank, not the thread crest. The JBLS37G measures 0.237 to 0.260 inch outside diameter with 10 threads per inch and a gimlet point, so a pilot in the 5/32 to 3/16 inch range in softwood lets the spaced threads cut and pull without splitting the member. The gimlet point means it starts itself once the pilot is in.
3) Does the JBLS37G lag bolt meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a government or institutional job?
Metallics lists the JBLS37G as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is China, so if your specification is a domestic-melt or domestic-manufacture clause rather than the ARRA/Buy American classification, confirm which standard your contract actually invokes before you submit it.
4) Will a 1/4 inch hex lag bolt hold in drywall, block, or concrete?
No. A lag bolt with spaced threads and a gimlet point is a wood fastener. It cuts its own thread in solid timber, plywood, or a wood plug. For concrete or CMU you need a concrete screw or an expansion anchor, and for hollow drywall a toggle. Driving this bolt into masonry without an insert will strip the hole.
5) What strength and material standard does this 1/4 inch galvanized lag bolt meet?
The JBLS37G is low carbon steel to AISI 1006 - 1022, with 60,000 psi minimum tensile strength and a hardness of Rockwell B70 to B100. Dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1-1996. That is a standard commercial lag bolt spec, not a high-strength grade, so it is not a substitute anywhere a drawing calls for a Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt.
6) How many lag bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBLS37G, and is that the minimum order?
They ship 100 to the jar, and 100 count is the order minimum. The jar packaging is the practical difference from the loose BLS version of the same bolt: it keeps a count on the truck or in the gang box instead of loose in a bin. Jar weight is listed at 726 g.
