Metallics JBLS24G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can a 3/8 x 3-1/2 galvanized lag bolt be used outdoors or in a damp location?
Yes. The Metallics JBLS24G lag bolt is galvanized steel and is called out for use in corrosive environments, so exterior strut runs, damp mechanical rooms, and outdoor equipment anchoring are within its intended use. For dry indoor work a plain zinc lag does the same job, but the galvanized coating is what buys you the exposure.
2) What size pilot hole do I need for the Metallics JBLS24G lag bolt?
Size the pilot to the shank, not the thread. The JBLS24G measures 0.360 to 0.388 inch across the outside diameter with 7 threads per inch, right hand. In wood, a pilot near the root diameter of a 3/8 inch lag lets the spaced threads and gimlet point pull without splitting the member; in softwood you can go slightly smaller, in dense hardwood stay closer to the full shank size.
3) Is the Metallics JBLS24G lag bolt Buy American or ARRA compliant?
No on both counts. The JBLS24G is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. On a federally funded job with domestic sourcing requirements, this part will not satisfy the clause.
4) How many lag bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBLS24G, and can I buy fewer?
The JBLS24G ships as a jar of 50, and 50 each is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest purchase unit. Metallics does make the BLS/JBLS lag bolts in other sizes and quantities on request if 50 of this length is not what the job needs.
5) Does this lag bolt meet a recognized dimensional standard for spec work?
It is built to ASME B18.2.1-1996 for dimensions, with material per AISI 1006-1022 steel. That gives you a citable standard on a submittal when a drawing calls for a standard hex lag screw.
6) How strong is the Metallics 3/8 x 3-1/2 hex lag bolt?
Minimum tensile strength is 60,000 psi, with hardness in the Rockwell B70 to B100 range. That is standard low-carbon lag screw strength, suitable for hanging strut, conduit racks, equipment mounts, and similar electrical and mechanical support work. It is not a structural grade bolt, so where a drawing calls for a graded bolt and nut, use that instead.
7) Do I need to order washers separately for these lag bolts?
Yes, washers are not part of the jar of 50. A lag through strut, a hanger, or any sheet member should get a flat washer under the head so the hex does not pull through or crush the wood. Spec the washer to a 3/8 inch bolt.
8) What does a jar of 50 of these 3/8 x 3-1/2 lag bolts weigh for shipping or carrying up a ladder?
The packed jar weighs 4.812 lbs. One jar is easy to carry in a bucket or pouch; plan accordingly if you are pulling several jars for a large strut run.
