Metallics JTEL1228 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What thread size and length are the Metallics JTEL1228 telecom cabinet screws?
The JTEL1228 is a 12-28 thread, 5/8 inch long screw. The 12-28 is the fine thread used in telecom and equipment cabinet rails, so it will not start in a rack punched for 12-24. Match the rail thread before ordering.
2) What driver do I need for the JTEL1228 tri-drive screws?
Three drivers work on the same head. The tri-drive pan head takes a Phillips bit, a square (Robertson) bit, or a flat blade in the slot, so an installer can run them with whatever is already on the belt. Square drive gives the best bit retention when you are working overhead inside a cabinet.
3) Is a pan head screw the right choice for mounting equipment in a telecom cabinet?
Pan head is the standard for cabinet and rack work: the flat underside bears on the surface of the rail or panel without needing a countersink, and the broad crown holds a washer or a bonding lug flat. If you need the head flush with the panel face instead, you want a flat head countersunk screw, not this one.
4) Are these screws corrosion resistant enough for indoor electrical rooms?
Steel with a zinc plating, which handles dry indoor service, telecom closets, electrical rooms, and enclosed cabinets. Zinc plated steel is not a wet or exterior finish, so for outdoor enclosures or washdown areas go to stainless instead.
5) Will a 5/8 inch screw be long enough for rack rails and mounting brackets?
At 5/8 inch under the head, there is enough thread for a rack rail plus a bracket flange or a cable management panel ear. Where you are stacking thicker shims or a bonding strap on top of the bracket, step up in length rather than forcing this one in with only a thread or two engaged.
6) How do the Metallics JTEL1228 screws come packaged?
They ship in a jar, which is how an MRO stockroom or a van wants rack screws, loose and countable rather than carded. Handy if you are standardizing one thread across a building's cabinets.
7) Are Metallics telecom cabinet screws made in the USA?
Yes. The JTEL1228 is domestically made, which matters on public and institutional jobs carrying a domestic sourcing requirement.
