Metallics JG5HTB27 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the JG5HTB27 threaded all the way to the head?
Yes. A hex tap bolt is fully threaded to the underside of the head, unlike a hex cap screw with a grip length. That is what makes it useful for mounting a motor to a machine frame or tapping into a threaded hole where you want thread engagement right up to the bearing surface. Thread is 3/8-16, right hand, 16 threads per inch.
2) Will these bolts thread into a standard 3/8-16 tapped hole or nut?
Yes. Thread is 3/8-16 UNC right hand, made to ASME B18.2.1-2012, so it mates with any standard 3/8-16 nut, tapped hole, or insert. Nuts are not included.
3) Will the JG5HTB27 bolt pass through a 3/8 inch clearance hole?
The shank outside diameter is 0.3690 to 0.3750 inches, so it is a true 3/8 bolt and needs a clearance hole slightly over 3/8 (a 13/32 or 7/16 drill is the normal pick). It will not drop through a hole drilled at exactly 3/8 with no slop.
4) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JG5HTB27?
Fifty pieces per jar, and the jar is the order minimum, counted in each. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
5) Are zinc plated Grade 5 tap bolts okay for outdoor or damp locations?
The finish is zinc plating over steel, which handles indoor and sheltered industrial use. For sustained outdoor exposure, washdown, or coastal air, zinc plate will eventually rust and stainless or hot dip galvanized is the better call.
6) Do these Metallics tap bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public project?
The record flags the JG5HTB27 as ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, with country of origin China. On a federally funded job, confirm which clause your contract actually invokes, because the two flags and the origin need to line up with the specific provision being enforced.
7) What steel are these Grade 5 hex tap bolts made from?
Medium carbon steel in the AISI 1008 to 1026 range, heat treated to reach Grade 5 properties. Shipping weight of the 50 piece jar is 2427 g.
