Metallics GS20500 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics GS20500 ground screw thread into the 10-32 tapped hole in a standard steel outlet box?
Yes. The GS20500 is a 10-32 thread ground screw, which is the thread tapped into the grounding hole of standard steel device and outlet boxes. Length is 3/8 inch, so it seats in the box's tapped boss without bottoming out or standing proud.
2) What head and washer does the Metallics GS20500 grounding screw have, and does the washer hold the ground wire?
It is a round head screw supplied with a washer, so the bare copper equipment grounding conductor is captured between the washer and the box rather than only under the head. That is what lets one screw hold the pigtail reliably in a steel box.
3) Can I use a 10-32 x 3/8 ground screw like the Metallics GS20500 in a plastic or nonmetallic box?
No. A 10-32 x 3/8 ground screw of this type is made to thread into the tapped grounding hole in a metal box or metal device bracket. Nonmetallic boxes have no tapped hole and generally no metal to bond, so the ground splices are made in the box instead with a wire connector.
4) How do I order the Metallics GS20500 ground screw, and is there more than one size on it?
One configuration only: Metallics part number GS20500, 10-32 x 3/8 round head with washer. There are no length, thread, or finish choices to specify.
