Metallics BHC44M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics BHC44M hex bolt have, and will it take a standard 3/8-16 nut?
The BHC44M is a 3/8 inch diameter hex bolt with 16 threads per inch, cut to ASME B18.2.1-1996. Measured outside diameter runs 0.360 to 0.388 inch. It mates with any standard 3/8-16 UNC nut or tapped hole. If the hole on your strut or enclosure is tapped 3/8-24 fine thread, this is the wrong pitch.
2) How many bolts come in a box of Metallics BHC44M, and can I buy a smaller quantity?
These ship as a box of 1000 pieces, and 1000 is the order minimum. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities on request, so if a job only needs a handful, ask about a different pack rather than buying a thousand.
3) Is a zinc plated steel bolt like the BHC44M OK for outdoor or damp electrical work?
The BHC44M is carbon steel with a zinc plated finish. Zinc plating handles indoor and protected areas, damp locations, and general MRO service fine, but it is not the same as hot dip galvanizing or stainless. For direct weather exposure, coastal air, or wet process areas, step up to a galvanized or stainless fastener instead.
4) Can I use these 3/8-16 hex bolts with strut channel and threaded rod hangers?
Yes, for the bolted connections. 3/8-16 is the common trade thread for strut channel nuts, beam clamps, pipe hangers, and enclosure mounting, and these are plain hex bolts in that size and pitch. They are bolts only, so nuts, flat washers, and lock washers are separate line items.
5) How much does a full box of Metallics BHC44M bolts weigh for shipping and material handling?
A full box runs 36.4 lbs, with carton dimensions of 9 x 9 x 6.13 inches. Worth knowing if you are staging multiple boxes on a cart or sending them up a lift.
6) Where are Metallics BHC series hex bolts made?
Country of origin on the BHC44M is China. Procurement teams with domestic-content requirements on a project should take that into account when specifying.
