Metallics SBH983 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and pitch is the Metallics SBH983 hex bolt, and will it take a standard 3/4-10 nut?
The SBH983 is a 3/4-10 hex bolt, meaning a 3/4 inch nominal diameter with 10 threads per inch, which is the standard UNC coarse pitch for 3/4 inch fasteners. Measured shank diameter runs 0.7410 to 0.7500 inch. Any standard 3/4-10 UNC nut or tapped hole will thread onto it.
2) How thick a material can I clamp with a 3/4-10 x 2 inch bolt?
Shank length is 2 inches under the head. After you allow for the nut and washers, that leaves roughly an inch and a half of usable grip, so it suits bolting a pair of plates, strut, or channel at modest total thickness. If you are going through thicker built-up steel, order a longer length instead.
3) Is 18-8 stainless the right bolt for outdoor or wet-location electrical work, or do I need 316?
The SBH983 is 18-8 stainless steel, an austenitic alloy suited to general atmospheric corrosion resistance, which covers typical outdoor, damp, and washdown service including chemical and food-processing equipment. Aggressive chemical exposure or chloride-heavy environments such as coastal salt spray call for 316 stainless instead.
4) Do these stainless hex bolts qualify for Buy American or ARRA-funded jobs?
Metallics lists the SBH983 as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, which is what a government, school, or healthcare procurement office needs on file. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
5) What wrench or socket size fits the head on this 3/4 inch stainless hex bolt?
Head width across flats measures 1.100 to 1.125 inch, so a 1-1/8 inch wrench or socket is the fit. Head height is 15/32 inch and the wrenching height, the flat portion a socket can grip, is 0.324 inch.
6) How strong is this stainless bolt compared with a graded carbon steel bolt?
Tensile strength is 85,000 to 140,000 psi minimum with a 45,000 psi minimum yield, and hardness runs Rockwell B80 to C32. That places it in the range of a standard commercial carbon bolt, not a high-strength Grade 8 structural fastener. For structural steel connections designed to a high-strength spec, use a graded carbon bolt; the stainless is for corrosion service.
7) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics SBH983 bolts?
No. The box contains 25 hex bolts only. Nuts, flat washers, and lock washers in 3/4-10 stainless have to be ordered separately, and matching them in 18-8 stainless keeps the whole connection at the same corrosion resistance and avoids a galvanic mismatch.
8) What trades and applications is the Metallics SBHC hex bolt line intended for?
Metallics puts the SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt series into electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work, so the common uses are anchoring strut and channel, hanging pipe and duct supports, equipment pads, and panel or enclosure mounting where a corrosion resistant fastener is wanted.
