Metallics BBH60 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics BBH60 hex bolt take, and will a standard 3/8-16 nut thread onto it?
The BBH60 is a 3/8-16 bolt, 16 threads per inch, cut to ANSI/ASME B1.1. Any standard 3/8-16 UNC nut or tapped hole will take it. For a bronze grounding connection, keep the nut in a compatible alloy so you are not mixing dissimilar metals at the joint.
2) Why use a silicon bronze bolt instead of plain steel or galvanized for a ground connection?
Silicon bronze holds up in wet and buried service and conducts, which is why it is the usual choice for ground rod clamps, bonding lugs and water-pipe grounds rather than plated steel. The BBH60 is silicon bronze throughout with a bronze finish, and the material is specified to ASTM F468, the standard covering nonferrous bolting. Steel in the same spot corrodes at the bronze interface.
3) Does the Metallics BBH60 bolt meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a federal job?
No. The BBH60 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, and country of origin is listed as multiple. If your project carries a domestic sourcing clause, this bolt will not satisfy it and you need a domestically produced silicon bronze fastener instead.
4) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics BBH60, and can I buy fewer?
They ship 100 to a jar, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Other sizes and quantities are available by request if 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 is not the length you need.
5) What part number do I order for a 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 silicon bronze hex bolt from Metallics?
Order Metallics BBH60. That is the manufacturer part number for the 3/8-16 x 1-3/4 inch silicon bronze hex bolt, packed 100 per jar. There is one configuration, so there is no finish or length option to specify.
6) Is this a hex head bolt or a hex cap screw with a washer face?
The BBH60 has a plain hex head, dimensioned to ASME B18.2.1. It drives with a wrench, not a driver bit, and there is no integral washer, so add a bronze flat washer where you need load spread on soft material or a slotted hole.
