Metallics JHTB42 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JHTB42 hex tap bolt?
It's a 5/16-18 hex tap bolt, 2 inches long, with right-hand threads at 18 threads per inch. Being a tap bolt, it's threaded the full length of the shank, so it works where you need complete thread engagement into a tapped hole or a nut right up to the head.
2) Will these hex tap bolts meet a Buy American or ARRA requirement on a federal job?
No. The JHTB42 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your project specification carries a domestic sourcing clause, you'll need a domestically manufactured fastener instead.
3) Is a zinc plated steel tap bolt OK for outdoor or damp electrical work?
The JHTB42 is carbon steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating handles indoor and sheltered conditions and incidental moisture, but it isn't stainless, so for continuous wet, coastal, or corrosive exposure step up to the 18-8 stainless version of the same hex tap bolt rather than the zinc.
4) How does a hex tap bolt differ from a regular hex cap screw, and which should I use?
A tap bolt is threaded the full 2 inch length; a standard hex bolt or cap screw has an unthreaded grip under the head. Full thread is what you want for shallow grip stacks, tapped holes, strut nuts, and anywhere you need engagement all the way to the head. Where the joint is in shear across a thick stack, a partially threaded bolt with the shank in the shear plane is the better choice.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JHTB42, and can I buy fewer?
The JHTB42 ships as a jar of 100 bolts, and one jar is the order minimum. Other sizes and quantities in the HTB, JHTB, and JSHTB hex tap bolt series are available by request.
6) What thread standard do these 5/16-18 tap bolts conform to, and will they thread into existing 5/16-18 nuts?
Threads are made to IFI-199 (2014), right hand, 18 TPI in 5/16 diameter, which is standard Unified coarse. They'll run into any standard 5/16-18 nut, strut nut, or tapped hole already on the job.
