Metallics SBH988 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is an 18-8 stainless hex bolt strong enough for structural or heavy anchoring work?
The SBH988 is 18-8 stainless with a tensile strength of 85,000 to 140,000 psi minimum and a yield of 45,000 psi minimum, hardness Rockwell B80-C32. That is corrosion-grade austenitic stainless, not a heat-treated structural bolt, and the 45,000 psi yield is the number to design to. For equipment mounting, strut, hangers and general MRO it is appropriate; for a load path where an engineer has specified a graded carbon steel structural bolt, match the called-out grade instead.
2) Do these stainless hex bolts qualify for a Buy American or ARRA-funded job?
Metallics lists the SBH988 as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is recorded as multiple, so if your contract requires a single named origin on the submittal, specify that when you order.
3) What size wrench or socket do I need for a 3/4-10 stainless hex bolt like the SBH988?
Across the flats the hex head measures 1.100 to 1.125 inches, so a 1-1/8 inch socket or wrench is the right size. Head height is 15/32 inch, and the wrenching height (the usable flat depth for the socket to grip) is 0.324 inch, so a standard depth socket seats fine.
4) Will 18-8 stainless bolts hold up outdoors or in a wash-down area?
18-8 austenitic stainless handles general atmospheric corrosion, which covers outdoor exposure, damp mechanical rooms, and chemical or food-processing equipment. In aggressive chemical service or chloride-heavy environments (coastal salt spray, pool chemistry), 316 stainless or another specially selected alloy is the better call, since some chemical environments need special corrosion resistant materials and precautions.
5) How many bolts come in a box of Metallics SBH988, and can I buy just one?
They ship as a box of 10, and the order minimum is 10 each, so a single bolt is not a stocking option. Pack weight is 3,964 g for the box of 10.
6) What trades actually use a 3/4-10 x 5-1/2 stainless hex bolt?
Metallics builds these for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades. Typical use is a through-bolt at 5-1/2 inches of grip length: equipment and pump bases, hanger and strut assemblies, transformer and panel mounting, and anywhere the fastener needs to resist corrosion rather than be painted.
7) I need a different length or diameter in the same 18-8 stainless hex bolt. Is that available?
The SBH988 is one size point, 3/4-10 x 5-1/2, in the Metallics SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt series. Other sizes and quantities in the same series are available by request, so give us the diameter, thread, and length you need rather than substituting a different material.
