Metallics GSH21M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 3/8 inch long ground screw be long enough to bond a pigtail in a metal box?
For a standard steel box with a tapped 10-32 grounding hole, 3/8 inch of thread is the usual length used to clamp a bare copper pigtail or bonding jumper against the box wall. It is short on purpose, so it does not bottom out or protrude into the back of the box behind the device. If you are stacking several conductors or a bonding strap plus a wire, a longer 10-32 ground screw gives you more thread to work with.
2) What is a ground screw dog used for versus a plain green grounding screw?
A screw dog (also called a ground clip style screw) is used where you need to trap the bonding conductor under a retaining feature rather than just winding it around the shank. The GSH21M is the 10-32 x 3/8 version, so it still lands in the same tapped grounding hole as a conventional green machine screw. If all you need is a wire wrapped once under a head, a plain 10-32 green grounding screw does the job.
3) Is the Metallics GSH21M a single screw or does it come as a pack?
GSH21M is ordered as the single catalog model, with no size or finish choices to pick. Electricians buying for a rough-in typically order it by quantity for the number of boxes on the job, since one grounding screw is consumed per metal box.
