Features
- Flat head with Phillips Drive
- 18-8 Stainless Material
- 6-32 Diameter, 1-1/2" Length
- Stainless is also superior to steel in withstanding some elevation in application operating temperature while maintaining its strength.
- Stainless steel machine screws are used in applications which require general atmospheric corrosion resistance, in food processing machinery and refrigeration equipment.
Additional Notes
- Other sizes and quantities available by request | Hardness and tensile strength standards are offered as guides only for stainless machine screws. There is currently no national standard for these performance requirements for stainless machine screws.

Metallics JFMP82SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is 1-1/2 inches too long for mounting a device to a standard box?
At 1-1/2 inches of length, these are long screws by device-mounting standards. They are meant for stacking through extension rings, mud rings, plaster rings or thick trim where a standard 1/2 or 3/4 inch screw runs out of reach. For a flush device in a plain box, that extra length will bottom out or protrude behind the strap, so a shorter 6-32 is the better pick there.
2) Should I use 18-8 stainless screws instead of plated steel for outdoor or wet locations?
Yes, that is the reason to pay for stainless. The 18-8 stainless material gives general atmospheric corrosion resistance, which is why these go into food processing machinery, refrigeration equipment and damp or washdown areas where a zinc-plated steel screw rusts and seizes in the tapped hole. Stainless also holds its strength better than plain steel at elevated operating temperatures.
3) Do these Metallics stainless screws qualify for a Buy American or ARRA federal job?
No. The JFMP82SS is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. For a federally funded project carrying a domestic sourcing requirement, you need a domestically produced fastener instead.
4) What size Phillips driver do these 6-32 stainless screws take?
A #2 Phillips. The recess is 0.168 inches across and 0.094 inches deep with a 0.029 inch slot width, so a #1 bit will cam out and chew the recess, especially in stainless. Keep a #2 in the gun.
5) How strong is a 6-32 18-8 stainless machine screw? Can I hang a fixture off it?
Rated at 550 lb minimum tensile with a hardness of Rockwell B85-B95. Note that hardness and tensile figures for stainless machine screws are guides, since there is no national performance standard for them, and tensile is a straight pull number, not a rated support load for a luminaire. For hanging work, follow the fixture manufacturer's hardware callout.
6) How are these sold, loose each or in a pack?
They come in a jar of 100, which is the order minimum. Plan the count accordingly if you are standardizing a truck stock or a facility parts crib on 6-32 x 1-1/2 stainless.
7) What trades actually use the FM and FMP series machine screws?
The FM and FMP series is aimed at the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning industries. In practice that is panel and enclosure work, device and plate mounting, duct and equipment trim, and anywhere a tapped hole takes a standard machine thread rather than a self-tapper into sheet metal.
8) What does the jar of 100 weigh for shipping or stocking a parts bin?
Half a pound, 0.52 lbs for the packaged jar. Light enough to keep several thread and length combinations on the van without cost.
