Metallics JBBH45 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Metallics JBBH45 silicon bronze hex bolt thread into a standard 3/8-16 nut or tapped hole?
Yes. The JBBH45 is a 3/8 inch diameter bolt at 16 threads per inch, cut to ANSI/ASME B1.1, so it mates with any standard 3/8-16 UNC nut, coupling, or tapped hole. The bolt body is 1 inch long, which is the usable grip plus thread, so stack your material thickness and nut height against that 1 inch before ordering.
2) Do Metallics JBBH45 bronze bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
No. The JBBH45 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your spec carries a domestic sourcing clause, this bolt will not satisfy it.
3) Why use a silicon bronze hex bolt instead of a plain steel or galvanized one?
Silicon bronze is the choice where corrosion and galvanic action matter more than raw cost: marine and shoreline work, grounding and bonding connections, water and wastewater structures, and anywhere the bolt is landing on bronze or copper hardware. The JBBH45 is silicon bronze throughout with a bronze finish, made to ASTM F468 for nonferrous bolting. If the connection is dry indoor structural steel, a plated steel bolt is the normal pick instead.
4) What wrench or socket size fits the head of the Metallics JBBH45 bolt?
Head width across flats measures 0.551 to 0.562 inch, which is the 9/16 inch hex a standard 3/8 inch bolt uses, so a 9/16 socket or wrench drives it. Head height runs 0.226 to 0.243 inch. Dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1, so it will seat in the same counterbore and clearance you use for any standard 3/8 hex bolt.
5) How are these 3/8-16 silicon bronze hex bolts packaged, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100 bolts, and the jar is the order minimum, so one unit gets you 100 pieces. Jar weight is 4.55 lbs. Other sizes and quantities can be requested.
6) Do nuts or washers come with the JBBH45 bolts?
The jar contains 100 hex bolts only. Nuts and washers are separate line items, and for a bronze connection you want matching silicon bronze hardware rather than steel, otherwise you reintroduce the dissimilar metal problem the bronze bolt was chosen to avoid. Metallics carries other sizes and quantities in the same family on request.
7) What trades actually use the Metallics BBH and JBBH series bronze hex bolts?
The series is aimed at the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC trades. Typical use is bolting bronze or copper fittings, ground clamps, and bonding hardware where a ferrous fastener would corrode or set up galvanic action at the joint. JBBH45 is the 3/8-16 x 1 inch size in that family.
