Metallics BHC59V – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 3/8-16 hex bolt thread into my existing 3/8 inch strut nuts and channel fittings?
Yes. The BHC59V is cut 16 threads per inch on a 3/8 in. diameter, which is standard 3/8-16 UNC, the same coarse thread used on strut channel nuts, beam clamps, and most 3/8 in. electrical hanging hardware. Measured shank diameter is 0.360 to 0.388 in. Threads are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996.
2) Can I use zinc plated steel hex bolts like the BHC59V outdoors or in a damp location?
These are plain carbon steel with a zinc plating, which is a mild indoor corrosion coating. It holds up in dry interior and protected locations, condensing or wash-down areas, exterior exposure, and coastal or chemical environments will rust it out. For those, specify hot-dip galvanized or stainless in the same 3/8-16 x 1-1/4 size.
3) Is the Metallics BHC59V sold individually or only by the box?
Box only. It ships as a 500 count box, and 500 is the order minimum, so you are buying a full box rather than loose pieces. For jobs that need a different size or a smaller count, Metallics offers other sizes and quantities by request.
4) Does the Metallics BHC59V hex bolt meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a public project?
The BHC59V is flagged Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant in Metallics' product data, with country of origin listed as China. If your specification requires domestic melt and manufacture rather than ARRA-level compliance, have the submittal reviewed before you release the order.
5) How much does a box of 500 Metallics 3/8-16 x 1-1/4 hex bolts weigh?
The 500 count box comes in at 22.93 lbs. That matters if you are hand-carrying boxes up a lift or staging multiple boxes on a cart for an overhead conduit or strut run.
6) What is the difference between the Metallics BHC and JBHC bolt series?
Both are hex bolt lines in the same family, split by finish. The BHC59V is the zinc plated steel version. The J prefix designates the galvanized line, which is what you move to when the bolt sees weather or wet locations rather than a dry interior.
