Metallics JG5HC127 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the JG5HC127 a coarse thread bolt, and what nut do I need?
It's 7/16-14, which is the UNC coarse thread pitch at 14 threads per inch. Pair it with a 7/16-14 coarse nut; a 7/16-20 fine nut will not thread on. Shank diameter runs 0.4305 to 0.4375 inch.
2) Is a Grade 5 zinc bolt strong enough for mounting a motor to a machine base?
Yes, and that's the stated use for this bolt. Grade 5 medium carbon steel, heat treated, with 105,000 psi minimum tensile and a Rockwell C19-30 hardness. For higher preload or shock duty you'd step up to Grade 8; for general machinery, motor mounts, and truck and automotive repair, Grade 5 is the normal choice.
3) Do these Metallics bolts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. The JG5HC127 is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your project carries a domestic sourcing clause, this bolt will not satisfy it.
4) Will a drilled 7/16 inch hole be big enough for this bolt?
No, drill oversize. The shank runs 0.4305 to 0.4375 inch, which is right at nominal 7/16, so a true 7/16 hole gives no clearance. Use a 1/2 inch clearance hole for a standard fit.
5) How much clamping material will a 3 inch long 7/16 hex cap screw handle?
The 3 inch length is measured under the head on this hex cap screw, so your total grip (all plates plus washers plus nut height) has to come in under that. For motor mounting and bracket work through two plates it's a common length. Head height adds on top of the 3 inches.
6) Will a zinc plated Grade 5 bolt hold up outdoors?
The zinc plating on these 7/16-14 bolts is a mild corrosion barrier, good for indoor machinery, enclosures, and sheltered equipment. Direct weather exposure, salt, or wash-down will eventually take the plating off a steel bolt. For sustained outdoor or marine service use hot dip galvanized or stainless instead.
7) How many bolts come in the Metallics JG5HC127 jar?
They ship in a jar of 50 pieces, and 50 each is the order minimum. The jar pack is handy for a shop bin or service truck where you're pulling the same size repeatedly. Metallics lists other sizes and quantities by request.
8) Are nuts and washers included with these Metallics hex bolts?
No. The jar contains 50 hex head cap screws only. Order 7/16-14 coarse nuts and 7/16 flat or lock washers separately to complete the joint.
9) What standard are these hex bolts manufactured to?
Head and thread dimensions follow ASME B18.2.1-2012, the hex cap screw dimensional standard, with the steel in the AISI 1008-1026 range. That means the 7/16-14 thread and 5/8 inch hex head will match any other bolt or nut built to the same spec.
