Metallics JBRHC26 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JBRHC26 brass hex bolt?
The JBRHC26 is a 3/8-16 x 3 inch hex bolt. Thread pitch is 16 threads per inch and the shank length is 3 inches, so it mates with any 3/8-16 brass nut or tapped 3/8-16 hole. Note that 3/8-16 is a coarse-thread callout specific to this part, not the more common 3/8-16 UNC spec sheets you may be used to seeing listed as 16 TPI.
2) Is the Metallics JBRHC26 bolt solid brass or just brass plated?
Solid brass. The material is listed as brass and the head color as brass, so it is a brass bolt throughout rather than a plated steel fastener. That is why it gets specified for grounding and bonding work and for wet or corrosive locations where a plated steel bolt would rust out.
3) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBRHC26?
Fifty bolts per jar, and the jar of 50 is the minimum order quantity. You buy it by the jar, not by the piece. Jar weight is listed at 2354 g for the full 50-count, useful if you are planning shipping on a multi-jar order.
4) Do these brass hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a federal job?
The JBRHC26 is flagged as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant in the manufacturer's data, while country of origin is listed as China. If your contract specification is one that accepts the Buy American compliance flag, the data supports it; if your job requires domestic melt and manufacture, the China origin is the number that governs.
5) Will a 3 inch brass bolt be long enough for my grounding lug and busbar stack?
A 3 inch shank gives you a lot of grip length, which is more than most single lug-to-busbar connections need. Measure your total stack: bar thickness plus lug pad plus any washers plus the nut. If that total is under roughly 2 inches you will have excess thread hanging past the nut, so a shorter brass bolt in the same 3/8-16 thread is the cleaner choice. Metallics offers other lengths in the JBRHC brass hex bolt series by request.
6) What wrench or socket do I need for the JBRHC26 hex bolt head?
It is a standard hex head bolt, so it drives with an open end wrench or a six point socket, not a driver bit. On a 3/8 inch diameter bolt the across-flats size is typically 9/16 inch, so have that wrench on the truck. Go easy on torque: brass is softer than steel and the threads will gall or strip before a steel bolt would.
7) Can I get the JBRHC brass hex bolt in a different length or a smaller quantity?
Other sizes and quantities in the JBRHC brass hex bolt line are available by request. The JBRHC26 itself is fixed at 3/8-16 x 3 inches in a 50-count jar, so if you need a different diameter, length, or pack count, ask for it against the series rather than ordering this part number.
