Metallics JBHC14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JBHC14 hex bolt?
It's a 5/16-18 x 2 inch hex bolt: 18 threads per inch on a 5/16 coarse thread, with a 2 inch length under the head. Thread form follows ASME B18.2.1-1996, so it mates with any standard 5/16-18 nut, strut nut, or tapped hole.
2) How many bolts come in a jar, and can I buy fewer than 100?
They ship as a jar of 100, and the jar is the minimum order unit, so 100 pieces is the smallest quantity. Other sizes and quantities can be arranged by request.
3) Will these 5/16-18 bolts work with Unistrut or B-Line channel nuts?
Yes. Strut channel nuts are commonly tapped 5/16-18, and this bolt is a standard 5/16-18 hex bolt per ASME B18.2.1-1996 with a 2 inch length, which gives plenty of thread for a nut plus a hanger or clamp. At 2 inches long, check you aren't bottoming out extra length inside the channel on thin assemblies.
4) Do the Metallics JBHC14 bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. They are not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. On a federally funded project with domestic-sourcing language, you'll need a domestically produced fastener instead.
5) Will a 1/2 inch wrench or socket fit these 5/16-18 hex bolts?
Yes. The hex head measures 0.484 to 0.500 inch across the flats, which is the standard 1/2 inch wrench size for a 5/16 bolt. No odd socket needed on the ladder.
6) Are these zinc-plated bolts okay for outdoor or damp locations?
These are zinc-plated steel, which handles indoor and normally dry commercial work well. For sustained outdoor exposure, washdown areas, or anywhere standing moisture is expected, step up to hot-dip galvanized or stainless; electroplated zinc is a light coating and will eventually rust through in those conditions.
7) What is the shank diameter on these bolts, for sizing a drilled hole?
Body diameter runs 0.298 to 0.324 inch. A 5/16 clearance hole (3/8 inch for standard clearance, 11/32 for close fit) passes it without binding.
8) Are nuts and washers included with the Metallics JBHC14 jar?
No. The jar contains 100 hex bolts only. Order 5/16-18 hex nuts and 5/16 flat or lock washers separately as the job needs them.
9) How much does a jar of 100 of these 5/16 x 2 hex bolts weigh?
The packed jar runs 4.98 lbs, measuring 3.5 x 3.5 x 5.75 inches. Useful if you're loading out a van or figuring shelf space in a shop crib.
