Metallics JBRHC14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Metallics JBRHC14 brass hex bolt thread into a 5/16-18 ground lug or grounding clamp?
Yes. The JBRHC14 is a 5/16 inch diameter bolt cut at 18 threads per inch, so it mates with any 5/16-18 tapped hole or nut. Measured thread outside diameter runs 0.3065 to 0.3125 inch, which is standard for 5/16-18, and usable length is 2 inches.
2) Why use a brass bolt instead of a steel or galvanized one for a grounding connection?
The JBRHC14 is solid brass, head and body. Brass is the usual choice where the bolt lands on copper or bronze grounding hardware, because it keeps the hardware and fastener close on the galvanic scale instead of putting dissimilar metals in contact at a connection that has to stay low resistance for years. Steel in that spot corrodes at the joint.
3) Does the Metallics JBRHC14 brass bolt meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a federal job?
The JBRHC14 is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA. Country of origin is China. If your specification requires domestic melt and manufacture rather than the broader compliance category, verify against your contract language before you submit.
4) What wrench or socket size fits the hex head on the Metallics JBRHC14?
Across the flats the head measures 0.489 to 0.500 inch, so a 1/2 inch wrench or socket is the fit. Head height is 13/64 inch with 0.14 inch of wrenching height, so a shallow socket or box wrench seats on it fine.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBRHC14, and can I buy fewer?
They ship 100 to a jar, and 100 count is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) Is 2 inches of bolt length enough for stacking a lug, washer and nut on a 5/16-18 connection?
At 2 inches of length, there is room for a lug tongue, a washer or two and a nut on a 5/16-18 thread, which is why this length gets used for ground bar and clamp assemblies rather than a flush bolted joint. If your stack-up is thinner you will have excess thread past the nut; shorter lengths in the same JBRHC series are available by request.
7) Does a jar of Metallics JBRHC14 bolts include nuts or washers?
No. The jar is 100 hex bolts only. Brass nuts and washers for the 5/16-18 thread have to be ordered separately, and for a grounding connection you want them in brass too so the whole joint stays the same metal.
