Metallics JG5HTB2650 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and pitch is the Metallics JG5HTB2650 hex tap bolt?
It is a 3/8 inch diameter bolt with 16 threads per inch, right-hand thread, which is standard 3/8-16 UNC coarse. Overall length is 3 inches, and the body measures 0.3690 to 0.3750 inch outside diameter. It will thread into any 3/8-16 tapped hole or standard 3/8 coarse nut.
2) Do these bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a federal or public project?
No. The JG5HTB2650 is listed as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, this bolt will not satisfy it and you need a domestically manufactured fastener.
3) Is a tap bolt the same as a regular hex bolt, and when should I use one?
A tap bolt is threaded the full length of the shank instead of having a plain unthreaded grip under the head. That is what you want when the fastener threads directly into a tapped hole, like bolting a motor base to a machine frame, because you get thread engagement no matter how deep the hole is. If you are clamping two drilled parts with a nut and want the shear plane on a solid shoulder, a partially threaded hex cap screw is the better choice.
4) Will these zinc plated steel bolts hold up outdoors or in a wet mechanical room?
The bolt is steel with a zinc finish, which handles indoor and sheltered conditions and incidental moisture. Zinc plating is a sacrificial coating, not stainless, so for continuous outdoor exposure, washdown areas, coastal sites, or anywhere standing water sits on the head, move to a hot dip galvanized or stainless fastener.
5) What dimensional standard do these hex tap bolts follow, and will they match our existing hardware?
Head and thread dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1-2012, the standard for inch hex bolts and screws, with steel per AISI 1008-1026. Because the geometry is to that standard, a 3/8-16 bolt here interchanges with any other B18.2.1 3/8-16 hex bolt in your stockroom, including the wrench size and nut fit.
6) How are these Metallics 3/8-16 x 3 bolts packaged and what is the minimum I can buy?
They ship in a jar of 50 pieces, and 50 each is the minimum order quantity, so the jar is the smallest unit. Other sizes and quantities in the G5HTB and JG5HTB series are available by request.
