Metallics JBBH14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread and size are the Metallics JBBH14 hex bolts, and will they take a standard 5/16-18 nut?
The JBBH14 is a 5/16-18 x 2 inch hex bolt, so 18 threads per inch on a 5/16 diameter, cut to ANSI/ASME B1.1 unified coarse. Any standard 5/16-18 nut or tapped hole will thread on. Grip length is the full 2 inches of bolt length.
2) Why use a silicon bronze hex bolt instead of galvanized steel for outdoor or ground work?
Silicon bronze is used where corrosion and galvanic compatibility matter, which is why the JBBH14 is pointed at electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work. It is the usual choice for grounding and bonding connections to copper conductors and copper bus, since bronze hardware will not set up the galvanic couple that steel or zinc plating does against copper. The material is supplied to ASTM F468, the standard covering nonferrous bolts for general use.
3) Can I use Metallics JBBH14 bolts on a federally funded or Buy American job?
No. The JBBH14 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, and the country of origin is listed as multiple. If the specification on your project calls for domestic fasteners, this is not the part to submit.
4) What socket or wrench size fits the head on the Metallics JBBH14 bolt?
Head width across flats is 0.489 to 0.500 inches, so a 1/2 inch wrench or socket is the fit. Head height runs 0.195 to 0.211 inches. Those dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1, the standard hex bolt dimensional spec, so it behaves like any other 5/16 hex bolt in a tight spot.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JBBH14, and can I buy fewer?
They ship as a jar of 100, and the jar is the order minimum, so 100 pieces is the smallest quantity. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) Do the Metallics JBBH14 silicon bronze bolts come with nuts or washers?
No. The jar contains 100 hex bolts only, 5/16-18 x 2 inch. Nuts and washers are ordered separately, and for a grounding or bonding connection you generally want them in bronze or copper alloy as well so you are not mixing a plated steel nut onto a bronze bolt.
7) What color are silicon bronze hex bolts, and will they blend with brass or copper trim?
The finish is bronze, bare silicon bronze rather than plated, so it reads as a warm brown gold next to copper pipe or bus bar and weathers rather than flaking the way plating does. Anyone matching exposed hardware on a copper or bronze assembly gets a closer visual match than with zinc or galvanized steel.
8) How much does a jar of 100 Metallics JBBH14 bolts weigh and how big is the container?
A full jar runs 4.99 lbs. The packaged dimensions are 5.75 in by 3.5 in by 3.5 in, so it stores easily on a van shelf or in a parts bin.
