Metallics JN168G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread does the Metallics JN168G hex nut take, and will it run onto 3/4 inch all-thread rod?
The JN168G is a 3/4-10 nut: 10 threads per inch, UNC coarse, right-hand. That's the standard coarse pitch for 3/4 inch rod and bolts, so it threads onto 3/4-10 all-thread used for hanging strut, trapeze supports and conduit racks. It will not fit 3/4-16 fine thread.
2) Can I use these galvanized nuts outdoors or in a coastal/damp environment?
Yes. The galvanized finish on the JN168G is intended for fasteners exposed to moisture, salt and similar corrosive conditions, which covers exterior conduit runs, rooftop support and wet mechanical rooms. Pair them with galvanized or hot-dip bolts and rod so you aren't mixing coatings on the same joint.
3) What grade are these hex nuts, and what bolts should they be used with?
Grade 2 steel, Rockwell B68-C32 hardness. Metallics specifies them for low carbon bolts and screws with a minimum tensile strength of 74,000 psi or less. If your drawing calls for a Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt, match it with a nut of that grade instead of this one, otherwise the nut becomes the weak point in the joint.
4) What wrench or socket size do I need for a 3/4-10 galvanized hex nut?
Measure across the flats: the Metallics JN168G runs 1.088 to 1.125 inches across flats, which is a 1-1/8 inch wrench or socket. Metallics notes the width spec is the wrench size. Corner-to-corner the nut measures 1.240 to 1.299 inches, so allow that clearance in tight channel or strut work.
5) How many nuts come in a jar, and is there a minimum order?
The JN168G ships as a jar of 25 nuts, and 25 each is the order minimum. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request, so if you need 3/4-10 in a different pack count it can be asked for.
6) Do these nuts meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a public project?
The JN168G is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so for a job where the paperwork has to name a single origin, confirm the origin on the lot you receive.
7) Are these dimensionally standard hex nuts, or a proprietary shape?
Standard. Metallics makes the JN hex nuts to American Standard Dimensions, so a 3/4-10 nut interchanges with any other standard-dimension 3/4-10 hex nut in your strut hardware, beam clamps or anchor assemblies. Material is steel with a grey galvanized appearance.
