Metallics JBHC23PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JBHC23PL hex bolt?
It's a 3/8-16 x 1-1/2 inch hex bolt, so coarse thread at 16 threads per inch. The shank measures 0.360 to 0.388 inch outside diameter, which is the normal tolerance band for a 3/8 inch diameter fastener. Mate it with 3/8-16 nuts or tapped 3/8-16 holes.
2) Are these plain steel bolts okay for outdoor or damp electrical work?
No. The JBHC23PL is plain finish steel with no plating or coating, so it will rust in wet, outdoor, or washdown locations. Use it for dry interior work, indoor strut and panel mounting, enclosure assembly. For exterior runs, rooftop strut, or damp locations, order a zinc plated or stainless hex bolt in the same 3/8-16 x 1-1/2 size instead.
3) How are these Metallics hex bolts packaged, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100 pieces, and 100 count is the order minimum. The filled jar weighs 5.63 lbs. For MRO cribs and electrical shops that burn through 3/8-16 hardware, the jar keeps the count contained on the shelf rather than loose in a bin.
4) Does the Metallics JBHC23PL come with nuts and washers?
Bolts only. The jar of 100 contains the 3/8-16 x 1-1/2 hex bolts and nothing else, so order 3/8-16 hex nuts and any flat or lock washers separately to complete the assembly.
5) Do these bolts meet a recognized dimensional standard for spec work?
Yes, the hex bolts are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996, the dimensional standard for inch square and hex bolts and screws. That means head height, across-flats and thread form match what a drawing calling out a standard 3/8-16 hex bolt expects.
6) Where are Metallics JBHC23PL bolts made?
Country of origin is China. Worth knowing up front if you're buying for a job with domestic sourcing requirements on fasteners.
