Metallics JG5HTB107 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JG5HTB107 hex tap bolt use, and will it thread into a 3/8-16 tapped hole?
It's a 3/8-16 right-hand thread hex tap bolt, 16 threads per inch, made to ASME B18.2.1-2012. Thread runs the full length rather than stopping short of the head, so it will engage a tapped hole or a nut anywhere along the shank. The shank measures 0.3690 to 0.3750 inch across, which is standard for a 3/8 inch bolt body.
2) Is the JG5HTB107 hex bolt strong enough for mounting a motor to a machine base?
Yes, that's what this bolt is built for. It's a Grade 5 cap screw in medium carbon steel, heat treated, with 105,000 psi minimum tensile and 105,000 psi minimum yield, hardness Rockwell C19-30. Metallics lists motor mounting to machinery as the primary use, along with automotive and truck repair. For higher clamp loads than Grade 5 handles you'd step up to a Grade 8 bolt.
3) What wrench or socket size fits the head on this Metallics 3/8 inch hex tap bolt?
The hex head measures 0.551 to 0.562 inch across the flats, so a 9/16 inch wrench or socket is the fit. Head height is 15/64 inch with a wrenching height of 0.16 inch, which matters if you're driving it in a recess or counterbore where socket clearance is tight.
4) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JG5HTB107 bolts?
No. The jar holds bolts only, 50 pieces, no nuts or washers. Since this is a hex tap bolt threaded full length, order 3/8-16 hex nuts and 3/8 flat or lock washers separately if you're not threading into a tapped hole.
5) Will zinc plated Grade 5 bolts hold up outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
The finish here is zinc over steel, which is a mild corrosion coating suited to indoor and sheltered use. In a wet exterior location, a washdown area, or anywhere near chlorides, zinc plating will eventually rust through and 18-8 stainless hex tap bolts are the better call. For a dry plant floor, motor base, or equipment room it's fine.
6) Do these Metallics hex tap bolts qualify for a Buy American or ARRA funded job?
Metallics flags the G5HTB/JG5HTB hex tap bolts as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, with country of origin listed as China. If your contract clause requires domestic melt and manufacture rather than the broader ARRA compliance category, confirm the origin against your specific spec before you commit the order.
7) What steel are Metallics Grade 5 hex tap bolts made from?
Carbon steel in the AISI 1008 to 1026 range, heat treated to reach Grade 5 properties, then zinc plated. That puts hardness at Rockwell C19-30. It's a medium carbon cap screw, not a stainless or alloy bolt, so avoid it where galvanic contact with aluminum or stainless assemblies is a concern.
