Metallics JMBHC53 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JMBHC53 hex bolt?
The JMBHC53 is an M5 metric hex bolt with a 16mm length, made to DIN 931. M5 coarse thread is 0.8mm pitch, so it mates with standard M5 nuts and tapped M5 holes. Sold 100 pieces to a jar.
2) How strong is the Metallics M5 hex bolt, and is it suitable for structural use?
Rated 116,000 psi minimum tensile and 92,800 psi minimum yield, with a hardness of Rockwell C22-32. That puts it in the medium carbon, heat treated class used for general equipment mounting, panel work, and electrical enclosure and strut hardware. It is not a certified structural bolt assembly, so for steel-to-steel structural connections use a bolt specified to the structural standard on your drawing.
3) Can the Metallics JMBHC53 zinc plated bolt be used outdoors or in wet locations?
Material is steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating handles indoor and dry or occasionally damp conditions well, but it is a sacrificial coating, not stainless. For sustained exterior exposure, wash-down areas, coastal sites, or anything in contact with treated lumber, specify stainless steel or hot dip galvanized hardware instead.
4) What size wrench or socket fits the head of an M5 DIN 931 hex bolt?
The JMBHC53 has a hex head, and an M5 DIN 931 bolt takes an 8mm wrench or socket across the flats. Head height on this bolt runs 3.85 to 4.15, so allow that clearance under any part sitting against the head.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JMBHC53, and is there an order minimum?
Each jar holds 100 M5 x 16 hex bolts, and 100 count is the order minimum, so one jar is the smallest buy. The filled jar weighs 472 g. Other sizes and quantities in the MBHC and JMBHC series are available by request.
6) Do nuts and washers come with the JMBHC53 bolts?
No. The jar contains the M5 x 16 hex bolts only, so order M5 hex nuts and M5 flat or lock washers separately to complete the joint.
7) Does the Metallics JMBHC53 bolt meet Buy American or ARRA requirements on a public project?
The record flags the JMBHC53 as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, with country of origin China. On a federally funded job, give both of those to your compliance reviewer, since domestic-content clauses vary by program and the origin matters to some of them.
