Metallics JBRHC105 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are these grounding bolts solid brass or just brass plated?
Solid brass. Both the material and the head color are listed as brass, so there is no plating to wear through or dissimilar steel core underneath. That matters on grounding and bonding connections where you want to avoid galvanic issues with copper lugs and busbar.
2) Will these brass bolts meet a Buy American requirement on a federal or public job?
The JBRHC105 is flagged as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant in the product record, which is what a government, school, or municipal procurement file normally asks for. Country of origin is listed as China, so if your specification demands domestic melt and manufacture rather than ARRA/BAA compliance status, confirm which standard the spec is written to before you submit.
3) Is a 5/8 inch long bolt long enough for bonding a busbar or ground bar?
At 5/8 inch of total length under the hex head, the JBRHC105 is sized for thin stack-ups: a lug or bonding jumper plus a bar or panel wall, typically up to about 3/8 inch of combined material once you allow full thread engagement in a 3/8-16 tapped hole. For thicker stacks, or where you are adding a washer and nut, step up to a longer 3/8-16 brass hex bolt.
4) Does the Metallics JBRHC105 come with nuts and washers?
No. The jar contains brass hex bolts only, 3/8-16 x 5/8. If the connection needs hardware on the back side, order brass hex nuts and flat or Belleville washers in 3/8 inch separately so the whole joint stays brass and you avoid mixing metals at a bonding point.
5) How many bolts are in a jar, and can I buy fewer than 100?
These ship 100 to a jar, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest purchasable unit. The jar packaging keeps the brass from rubbing and tarnishing in a truck or gang box. Other sizes and quantities can be arranged by request.
6) Should I use brass bolts or plain steel ones for an electrical connection?
Use brass where the joint carries current or has to stay corrosion-free against copper, such as ground bars, bonding jumpers, panel lugs, and water-pipe clamps. Brass is conductive and will not set up the galvanic corrosion you get where plated steel sits against copper. Use steel where the bolt is purely structural and carries real clamping load, since brass is the softer of the two. The JBRHC105 is solid brass, 3/8-16 x 5/8.
7) What head do these take, and what wrench or driver do I need?
Hex head, so it drives with a standard wrench or socket rather than a screwdriver or hex key. A 3/8-16 bolt normally takes a 9/16 inch wrench across the flats. Brass is softer than steel, so snug it rather than leaning on it with an impact gun.
