Metallics JN167BR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics JN167BR brass hex nut thread onto 5/8-11 ground rod or threaded rod?
Yes. The JN167BR is a 5/8-11 hex nut, 11 threads per inch cut to ANSI/ASME B1.1, so it runs onto any standard 5/8-11 UNC rod or bolt, including threaded rod and 5/8-11 ground rod couplings.
2) Can I use the JN167BR on a Buy American or ARRA funded project?
The JN167BR is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA. Country of origin on record is China, so if your specification demands domestic melt and manufacture rather than the compliance flag, verify the clause language your project is written under.
3) Is a 5/8-11 brass hex nut the right nut for a 5/8 inch ground rod clamp or lug stud?
It fits if the stud is 5/8-11 UNC. 5/8 inch diameter studs on electrical lugs and rod clamps are commonly 5/8-11 coarse, and this nut is cut to that thread. If the stud is 5/8-18 fine, this nut will not thread on, so count the threads before ordering.
4) Why use a brass nut instead of plated steel on a grounding or bonding connection?
The JN167BR is solid brass, not plated. On grounding and bonding work that matters for two reasons: brass stays corrosion resistant where a zinc plated steel nut will rust once the coating is scratched, and it keeps the connection to copper conductors and bronze lugs galvanically closer than steel does. For dry structural fastening, plated steel is the cheaper choice.
5) How many nuts come in a jar of Metallics JN167BR, and can I buy fewer?
It ships as a 25 count jar, and 25 pieces is the order minimum, so the jar is the smallest unit. Total weight is 1.81 lbs per jar. Other sizes and quantities can be requested.
6) Does this brass hex nut meet a recognized dimensional standard for spec work?
Dimensions conform to ASME B18.2.2, the standard for hex nuts, and the thread form is ANSI/ASME B1.1. That pair of callouts is normally what a submittal asks for on a fastener line item.
