Metallics JFMP81SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 6-32 machine screw thread into a standard electrical device box or switch plate?
The Metallics JFMP81SS is a 6-32 UNC screw cut to the ANSI/ASME B1.1 thread standard at 32 threads per inch, which is the common machine screw thread used across the electrical, plumbing and HVAC trades. It mates with any 6-32 tapped hole. At 3/4 inch long it gives more thread engagement than the short screws that ship with most devices, so it is a good fix when a plate or device has to reach through added thickness.
2) Can I use 18-8 stainless machine screws in a damp or washdown area instead of plain steel?
That is what the 18-8 stainless material is for. These screws are specified for general atmospheric corrosion resistance and are used in food processing machinery and refrigeration equipment. Stainless also holds its strength better than plain steel as operating temperature rises, so it suits mechanical rooms and equipment enclosures where zinc plated screws rust out.
3) What size Phillips bit drives these 6-32 stainless screws?
A #2 Phillips. The recess is 0.168 in. in diameter and 0.094 in. deep, so a #1 bit will bottom out and cam out under torque. Stainless is softer than hardened steel in the recess, so a correctly sized #2 and steady pressure matter if you are driving a jar of them.
4) Are these Metallics stainless screws made to a dimensional spec I can put on a submittal?
Yes. Head and recess dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-1998 and the threads follow ANSI/ASME B1.1, with SAE as the material standard. That covers the head geometry a spec reviewer looks for. Note for public work: these are listed as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin shown as multiple.
5) Is a machine screw the right choice, or do I need a self-tapping or sheet metal screw?
A machine screw like the JFMP81SS has a uniform straight thread and no point, so it needs a pre-tapped hole or a nut. It will not cut its own thread in sheet metal or drywall. If you are fastening into an untapped panel, a self-drilling or sheet metal screw is the correct type. Use these where the 6-32 threads already exist, such as device yokes, plates, panel standoffs and equipment covers.
6) How are the JFMP81SS screws packaged and what is the smallest quantity?
They come in a jar of 100, which is the order minimum. Jar weight is 0.32 lbs. For a maintenance cart or a van stock bin that is the practical unit, and other sizes and quantities are available by request.
