Metallics GSH24 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Metallics GSH24 ground screw thread into the tapped hole in a standard steel outlet box?
Yes. The GSH24 is a 10-32 x 3/8 inch hex washer head slotted screw, and 10-32 is the thread size used for the green grounding-screw hole in standard steel device and outlet boxes. The 3/8 inch length gives enough thread engagement in the box boss without bottoming out behind it.
2) Is the GSH24 the right screw for bonding a ground pigtail to a metal box?
That is exactly what this part is for. The GSH24 is a 10-32 x 3/8 grounding screw, used to terminate an equipment grounding conductor or bonding pigtail to the tapped ground hole in a metal box or enclosure. The washer face under the hex head holds the wire loop against the box without needing a separate washer.
3) What driver do I need for the GSH24 ground screw, and can I run it with a drill?
It has a hex washer head with a slot, so you can drive it two ways: a flat blade screwdriver in the slot, or a nut driver or socket on the hex. In a crowded box the nut driver on the hex is faster and far less likely to cam out than the slot.
4) Will a 3/8 inch ground screw be too long for a shallow handy box?
At 3/8 inch it is the short standard length for this purpose. The tapped ground boss in a steel box is a blind hole, so a 10-32 x 3/8 screw seats fully without protruding into the wiring space. If you need the screw to pass through a thicker lug or two stacked conductors you would step up in length rather than use this one.
5) Do I order the GSH24 by model number, or are there size options to pick?
There is one configuration: Metallics model GSH24, 10-32 x 3/8. Nothing else to specify, no finish or length choice. Order by the GSH24 part number.
