Metallics JBHC25G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JBHC25G hex bolt take, and will a standard 3/8 inch nut fit it?
The JBHC25G is a 3/8-16 hex bolt, 16 threads per inch, which is the standard coarse (UNC) pitch for 3/8 inch diameter. Any 3/8-16 nut, coupling nut, or tapped 3/8-16 channel insert will thread onto it. Threads are made to ASME B18.2.1-1996, and the measured shank outside diameter runs 0.360 to 0.388 in.
2) Is the galvanized finish on these 3/8-16 bolts good enough for damp or outdoor electrical work?
The bolts are steel with a galvanized finish, which is the usual choice for strut, hangers, and supports in damp, unheated, or exterior locations where plain zinc-plated hardware would rust. For continuous saltwater exposure or chemical environments, stainless is the better call.
3) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC25G, and can I buy fewer than that?
They ship as a jar of 50, and 50 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest buying unit. Metallics does offer the BHC and JBHC hex cap bolts in other sizes and quantities by request if 50 of the 2-1/2 inch length is not what the job needs.
4) Do these Metallics hex bolts meet Buy American and ARRA requirements on a public project?
The JBHC25G is flagged as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant in the product record, with country of origin China. If your contract documents require domestic melt and manufacture rather than the broader compliance flag, verify the mill certification against your specification before submitting.
5) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JBHC25G jar of 50?
No. The jar contains 50 hex bolts only. You will need to order 3/8-16 nuts and 3/8 flat or lock washers separately, in a matching galvanized finish so you do not mix finishes on an outdoor support.
6) What does a jar of 50 of these 3/8-16 galvanized bolts weigh for shipping or carrying up a ladder?
The packed jar weighs 4.41 lbs. Packaged dimensions are 5.75 in high by 3.5 by 3.5 in, so it fits a gang box or tool bag easily.
