Metallics TM68 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) I have receptacles that won't pull tight because the box is recessed behind tile. Is this the right screw?
That is the job the TM68 is made for. The 1-1/4 inch length gives you roughly three quarters of an inch more thread than the short screws packed with most devices, so the yoke can still catch the box threads after you have shimmed the device out to the finished surface. Same 6-32 thread, so nothing else about the install changes.
2) Can I drive the Metallics TM68 with a Phillips bit, or do I need a flat blade?
Either one. The TM68 has a combo head, slotted and Phillips in the same recess, so a #2 Phillips in a drill or a flat blade screwdriver both work. Handy on device work where you are already switching between terminal screws and mounting screws.
3) Why use a truss head screw instead of an oval or round head on a receptacle?
A truss head is wide and low, so it spreads the clamping load across the device strap or the plaster ring and sits flatter under the cover plate. Oval and round heads stand taller and can interfere with a tight-fitting wall plate. On the TM68 the truss head is paired with a 6-32 machine thread for device mounting.
4) Are these zinc plated steel screws OK for a damp location or outdoor box?
The TM68 is zinc plated steel, which gives it indoor corrosion protection for dry and normally damp interior work. For sustained wet exposure, direct weather, or coastal and corrosive environments, specify a stainless device screw instead, since zinc plating on steel will eventually bloom and seize in the yoke.
5) What part number do I order for the Metallics 1-1/4 inch device screw?
Order Metallics TM68. That is the 6-32 x 1-1/4 in. truss head combo receptacle screw in zinc plated steel. One model, no finish or length options to pick.
