Metallics JFM99 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 1/4-20 x 1/2 in. flat head machine screw thread into a standard 1/4-20 tapped hole or nut?
Yes. The Metallics JFM99 is cut to UNC threads at 20 threads per inch to ANSI/ASME B1.1, so it mates with any standard 1/4-20 coarse tapped hole, nut, or threaded insert. Thread form is the standard Unified coarse series, not metric and not fine pitch.
2) Are these screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The JFM99 flat head machine screws are not Buy American compliant and are not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, these will not qualify.
3) Can I use zinc plated steel machine screws outdoors or in a wet location?
These are zinc plated carbon steel, which is a mild corrosion barrier meant for dry indoor use, panel work, and enclosure interiors. In a damp, washdown, coastal, or buried application the plating will eventually sacrifice and the AISI 1006-1022 steel underneath will rust. Specify stainless for those openings instead.
4) Are 1/4-20 flat head slotted machine screws the right choice for electrical device and enclosure work?
Yes, these are intended for electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work, and the flush flat head matters when a cover or faceplate has to seat tight with nothing standing proud. Use a round or pan head instead if the hole is not countersunk, since a flat head in a flat hole only bears on the edge of the head and will not clamp evenly.
5) How are these machine screws packaged and what is the minimum I can order?
They ship in a jar, with an order minimum of one jar of 100 pieces at about 0.89 lb. The jar is a shop or truck-stock pack rather than a bulk box, so if you are standardizing a facility on 1/4-20 flat heads you order in jar multiples.
