Metallics BLS26G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use these lag bolts outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
Yes. The BLS26G is galvanized steel and is made for corrosive environments, so exterior framing, damp mechanical spaces and unconditioned areas are within what it is built for. For fully wet or chemical exposure you would step up to stainless.
2) Are these lag bolts Buy American and ARRA compliant for a government or school job?
Yes, the BLS26G is flagged both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, which is what public and institutional specs usually call for. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
3) Do I need to drill a pilot hole, or will these lag bolts start on their own?
The BLS26G has a gimlet point and spaced threads, so it starts itself in soft wood, but it is a full-bodied bolt with a 0.360 to 0.388 inch shank and a pilot hole is still the right practice in dimensional lumber to avoid splitting and to get full thread engagement. Drill the clearance hole through the member being fastened and the pilot into the holding member.
4) What standard and strength do these galvanized lag bolts meet?
Dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1-1996, the material is steel in the AISI 1006 to 1022 range, tensile strength is 60,000 psi minimum and hardness runs Rockwell B70 to B100. That is standard low-carbon lag screw strength, suitable for general wood anchoring rather than structural high-strength bolted connections.
5) Can I get the 3/8 inch hex lag bolt in a different length or a smaller quantity?
The BLS and JBLS series covers other sizes and quantities by request, so a shorter or longer 3/8 inch lag or a different pack count can be sourced. The BLS26G itself is fixed at 3/8 x 5 inches, galvanized, 100 per box.
6) How much does a box of 100 Metallics 3/8 x 5 galvanized lag bolts weigh?
A full box runs 14.01 lbs. Worth knowing if you are staging material for an upper-floor install or working out hand-carry loads.
