Metallics JRM20M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics JRM20M 10-32 screw thread into a standard electrical box or device yoke?
Yes. The JRM20M is a 10-32 machine screw with 32 threads per inch, which is the standard thread used on outlet box tapped holes, device mounting yokes and ground screw holes in North American electrical work. At 3/8 inch long it is sized for mounting a device or plate directly to a box ear rather than reaching through spacers.
2) Will the Metallics JRM20M meet a Buy American or ARRA requirement on a public job?
No. The JRM20M is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. On a federally funded project with domestic sourcing language, this screw will not satisfy that clause.
3) Does the JRM20M take a Phillips or a flat blade screwdriver?
Either one. It is a combo head, slotted and Phillips in the same recess, so a crew can drive it with whatever is on the belt. Phillips drivers in a #2 size fit the recess, which runs 0.182 to 0.195 inch in diameter. The slot is 0.05 to 0.06 inch wide, so a standard small flat tip seats properly.
4) How much does the round head on a 10-32 Metallics combo machine screw stick up, and will it clear a cover plate?
The round head measures 0.334 to 0.359 inch across and sits 0.123 to 0.137 inch proud of the surface. That domed profile is not flush, so if you need the screw to sit level with a plate or a bracket face you want a flat head countersunk screw instead of the JRM round head.
5) How are Metallics JRM machine screws packaged, and what is the minimum order?
They come in a jar, and the order minimum is 1000 pieces. That is a bulk MRO pack, not a small blister count, so it suits a shop drawer or a service van restock rather than a single repair.
6) Are zinc plated steel machine screws like the JRM20M OK for outdoor or damp locations?
The JRM20M is AISI 1006 to 1022 carbon steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry indoor service; for wet, washdown or exterior work, specify a stainless machine screw in the same 10-32 x 3/8 size instead.
7) Is a 3/8 inch long 10-32 screw enough thread for stacking a device with a spacer or a thick plate?
Probably not. At 3/8 inch there is only enough shank to pass through a device ear or a thin bracket and still pick up a few threads in the tapped hole. If you are shimming a device out of a recessed box or going through a heavy mounting plate, step up to a longer 10-32 in the same JRM round head combo pattern.
8) What is the tensile strength and hardness of the Metallics 10-32 combo machine screw?
Minimum tensile strength is 60,000 psi, with hardness of Rockwell B70 to B100. That is standard low carbon steel machine screw duty, fine for device, plate, bracket and enclosure mounting. It is not a structural grade fastener, so do not substitute it where a drawing calls out a graded bolt.
