Metallics JBHC45G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC45G hex bolt use, and will it take a standard 3/8-16 nut?
The JBHC45G is a 3/8-16 hex bolt, 16 threads per inch, made to ASME B18.2.1-1996. That is standard 3/8 inch UNC coarse thread, so any standard 3/8-16 coarse nut or tapped 3/8-16 hole takes it. If the nuts on hand are 3/8-24 fine thread, they will not thread on.
2) Is a galvanized Grade 2 hex bolt OK for outdoor or damp electrical work?
The JBHC45G is galvanized steel, which is the usual choice for damp locations, exterior strut runs, and rooftop or mechanical room mounting where plain zinc would rust out. It is Grade 2, the general purpose strength class, so it is intended for support and mounting work rather than high tensile structural connections. For a structural or high load joint, specify a Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt instead. For salt spray or heavy chemical exposure, stainless is the better call.
3) Do these Metallics hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public project?
No. The JBHC45G is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your job carries a domestic sourcing clause, this bolt will not satisfy it and you need a domestically produced fastener.
4) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC45G, and can I buy a smaller count?
These ship 100 bolts to the jar, and the jar is the order minimum. Smaller counts are not broken out, but other sizes and quantities in the BHC and JBHC series are available by request.
5) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JBHC45G bolts?
The jar holds hex bolts only, 100 of them. Plan on ordering 3/8-16 hex nuts and 3/8 flat or lock washers separately to complete the assembly.
6) What trades actually use the Metallics JBHC45G galvanized hex bolt?
It is stocked for electrical, plumbing, and heating and air conditioning work: bolting strut and channel, hanging conduit and pipe supports, securing brackets and enclosures. It is a general purpose mounting bolt, not a structural steel fastener.
7) How much does a 100 count jar of 3/8-16 x 1 galvanized hex bolts weigh?
A jar of the JBHC45G runs 4.83 lbs for the 100 bolts. Jar dimensions are 5.75 x 3.5 x 3.5 in., which matters if you are loading a service van bin or a shelf of standardized fastener stock.
