Metallics JFWP50 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size driver bit do I need for the Metallics JFWP50 wood screws?
A #3 Phillips bit. The JFWP50 uses a Phillips drive with a recess diameter of 0.270 to 0.283 in., a recess width of 0.036 in. and a recess depth of 0.046 to 0.070 in., so a #2 bit will cam out and chew the recess on a 3 inch screw. Keep a #3 in the gun.
2) Will a #14 x 3 in. flat head wood screw sit flush in a countersunk hole?
Yes, if the countersink matches the head. The JFWP50 has a flat head measuring 0.452 to 0.507 in. across with a head height of 0.153 in., so it seats flush in a standard countersink cut for a #14 flat head. Without a countersink the head will stand proud of the surface.
3) Are Metallics JFWP50 screws acceptable on a Buy American or ARRA funded job?
No. The JFWP50 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 requirements you need a different fastener.
4) Are these Metallics wood screws self-drilling, or do I need to pre-drill?
They are not self-drilling. The JFWP50 has a tapered point, which is the traditional wood screw point that follows a pilot hole. In hardwood or near an edge, pre-drill for the #14 shank; in soft framing lumber the taper will usually start on its own, but a pilot keeps the 3 inch screw from splitting the stock.
5) Can I use these zinc plated wood screws outdoors or in a damp location?
These are steel with a zinc finish, which is a plated coating for dry interior and protected service. Zinc plating is not the same as hot dip galvanizing or stainless, so for exterior exposure, pressure treated lumber, or wet mechanical rooms, step up to a stainless or hot dip screw instead.
6) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JFWP50?
The JFWP50 ships as a jar of 100 screws, and the jar is the minimum order unit. Packed weight is 3.141 lbs.
7) How much of a 3 inch wood screw is actually threaded?
On the JFWP50, roughly two thirds of the length carries thread at 10 threads per inch, with the balance left as shank under the head. Lengths too short to take the minimum thread run their threads up as close to the head as practicable. Plan for about 2 inches of thread biting into the receiving member.
8) Are these wood screws suitable for hanging electrical boxes, strut, and pipe hangers to wood framing?
That is the intended use. Metallics lists the JFWP series for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades, and a #14 x 3 in. flat head with a tapered point is a common choice for fastening hangers, straps and backing to wood studs and joists. The flat head lets the fixing sit flat against a strap or plate.
