Metallics JBHC54PL – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are these plain steel bolts okay for outdoor or damp electrical work?
No. The JBHC54PL is plain finish steel with no zinc or galvanized coating, so it will rust in wet or outdoor conditions. Keep plain bolts to dry indoor use (interior strut, panel and enclosure mounting, dry-location boxes). For exterior runs, wet locations or anything exposed to washdown, order a zinc-plated or hot-dip galvanized 5/16-18 x 1-1/4 hex bolt instead.
2) What wrench or socket size fits these 5/16-18 hex bolts?
Head width across the flats measures 0.484 to 0.500 inches, which is a 1/2 inch wrench or socket. That is the standard hex size for a 5/16 inch bolt made to ASME B18.2.1, so your existing 1/2 inch driver works without a specialty tool.
3) How many bolts come in a jar of the Metallics JBHC54PL, and can I buy fewer?
These ship in a jar of 100 pieces, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit sold. The filled jar weighs 3.5 lbs. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities in the BHC and JBHC series by request.
4) Do nuts and washers come with these Metallics hex bolts?
No. The jar contains hex bolts only, 100 of them. You will need to order 5/16-18 hex nuts and 5/16 flat or lock washers separately to complete the assembly.
5) Are these hex bolts made to a recognized dimensional standard so they interchange with what I already stock?
Yes. The JBHC54PL is built to ASME B18.2.1-1996, the US standard for square and hex bolt dimensions. That means head height, across-flats width and thread form match any other B18.2.1 5/16-18 hex bolt, so they drop in alongside existing stock on the same job.
