Metallics JSBH24D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JSBH24D hex bolt take, and will it run into a standard 3/8-16 nut?
It is a 3/8-16 hex bolt, 16 threads per inch, which is the standard coarse (UNC) pitch for 3/8 inch diameter. Shank outside diameter runs 0.3690 to 0.3750 inch, so it mates with any standard 3/8-16 UNC nut, coupling or tapped hole. Overall length is 2 inches.
2) Is the JSBH24D bolt 18-8 or 316 stainless, and will it hold up outdoors?
The JSBH24D is 18-8 stainless steel, an austenitic alloy suited to general atmospheric corrosion resistance, the kind of exposure you get on exterior electrical gear, chemical and food-processing equipment. For aggressive chemical exposure or salt-spray marine service, step up to 316 stainless instead, which Metallics offers in the same SBHC and JSBHC bolt family.
3) How strong is a 3/8-16 x 2 inch 18-8 stainless hex bolt compared with a plated Grade 5?
Tensile strength on this bolt is 100,000 to 150,000 psi minimum with a 65,000 psi minimum yield and a hardness of Rockwell B95 to C32. That puts it in the range of a Grade 5 fastener for tensile, but the yield is lower, so stainless is the choice when you need corrosion resistance rather than maximum clamp load. For high-torque structural work a Grade 8 alloy bolt is the better pick.
4) Does this Metallics stainless bolt qualify for a Buy American or ARRA-funded job?
No. The JSBH24D is not flagged Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, even though country of origin is listed as the United States. If your project specification carries a domestic-preference clause, confirm the clause language before you submit this part, because the compliance flags on the item do not support it.
5) How does the JSBH24D come packaged and what is the minimum I can buy?
It ships as a jar of 100 pieces, and 100 count is the order minimum, so you buy a full jar rather than loose pieces. The jar packaging is what makes it practical on a service van or a shop bin.
6) I need the same 18-8 hex bolt in a different length or diameter. Can I get it?
Yes. The JSBH24D is the 3/8-16 x 2 inch version within the Metallics SBHC and JSBHC hex bolt series, and other sizes and quantities are available by request. If you are standardizing a panel or enclosure build on one alloy, you can keep the 18-8 material and change length or diameter.
