Metallics JMHTB816 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and pitch does the Metallics JMHTB816 hex tap bolt have?
The JMHTB816 is an M8 bolt with a 1.25 mm thread pitch, which is the standard coarse metric pitch for M8, and the thread is right hand. Length under the head is 16 mm. If your tapped hole or nut is M8 x 1.25, this threads straight in; an M8 x 1.0 fine-pitch hole will not accept it.
2) Is the JMHTB816 threaded all the way to the head, or is there a shoulder?
Fully threaded. On this hex tap bolt the threads run the full shank right up under the head, so there is no unthreaded shoulder. That is what makes it work in a shallow tapped hole where a partially threaded bolt would bottom its shank before clamping. It also carries a washer face under the head to spread the bearing load.
3) What is Class 8.8 on a metric bolt and is it strong enough for mounting a motor?
Grade 8.8 is the medium carbon, heat treated class used for general structural and equipment mounting work. The JMHTB816 lists a minimum tensile strength of 11600 psi and a minimum yield of 92800 psi, with a hardness of Rockwell C22-32. It is called out for mounting motors to machinery and is common in automotive and truck repair.
4) What finish is on these M8 bolts and where can I use them?
Steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating suits dry indoor and protected mechanical work: the stated field applications are electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning. For sustained outdoor exposure or washdown areas, a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener is the better call.
5) How many bolts come in a jar of Metallics JMHTB816 and can I buy fewer?
They ship as a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum, so a jar is the smallest unit. Other sizes and quantities are available by request. A jar weighs 1070 g.
6) Do these Metallics hex tap bolts meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a government job?
The JMHTB816 is flagged as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, which is what a public agency or institutional procurement file usually needs on a fastener line item. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
7) What wrench or socket do I need for the JMHTB816 hex head?
It is a hex head bolt, driven with a standard socket or open end wrench rather than any driver bit. Head height is listed at 5.15 to 5.45, so a shallow socket clears it fine in tight motor mount pockets.
