Metallics JBHC26G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JBHC26G hex bolt?
It's a 3/8-16 x 3 inch hex bolt, so coarse UNC thread at 16 threads per inch with a 3 inch length under the head. Thread form follows ASME B18.2.1-1996, which is the standard dimensional spec for inch hex bolts, so it mates with any standard 3/8-16 nut or tapped hole.
2) Are galvanized hex bolts like the JBHC26G okay for outdoor or damp electrical work?
Yes. These are steel bolts with a galvanized finish, which is the usual choice for exterior strut, conduit racks, meter bases and other damp or wet-location mounting where a plain or zinc-plated bolt would rust out. For continuously corrosive or coastal work, stainless is the step up.
3) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBHC26G, and can I buy fewer?
They ship in a jar of 50, and 50 count is the order minimum, so that's the smallest quantity. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities of the BHC and JBHC hex bolts by request if 3 inch or a 50 count jar isn't what the job needs.
4) Do these Metallics hex bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a federal job?
The JBHC26G is flagged as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant in the manufacturer's data, with country of origin China. On a federally funded project, submit those flags with your documentation and let the specifying authority confirm against the clause in your contract, since compliance language varies by program.
5) Are nuts and washers included with the JBHC26G hex bolts?
No. The jar contains the 3/8-16 x 3 inch galvanized hex bolts only, so order 3/8-16 nuts and 3/8 flat or lock washers separately. Match the plating where you can, galvanized or hot dip nuts with galvanized bolts, so you don't set up a mismatch in a wet location.
6) How much does a jar of 50 of the 3/8-16 x 3 galvanized hex bolts weigh?
A full jar comes in at 5.21 lbs. Useful if you're loading a van or figuring freight on a multi-jar order for a large strut or rack install.
