Metallics JFW128 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many Metallics JFW128 wood screws come in a pack, and how are they packaged?
The JFW128 ships in a jar, with a minimum order of 100 count. So one order gets you a 100-piece jar of the #6 x 1/2 in. flat head slotted wood screw, not a single loose fastener.
2) Are the Metallics JFW128 screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a public project?
Metallics flags the JFW128 as ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is China. If your contract requires domestically melted and manufactured fasteners, read those compliance flags against your specific contract language before you submit.
3) Will a #6 x 1/2 in. flat head screw sit flush in a countersunk hole?
Yes, that's what the flat head is for. The JFW128 head measures 0.244 to 0.279 in. across with a head height of 0.083 in., so in a properly countersunk hole the head seats flush with the surface. Drive it with a flat blade: the slot runs 0.039 to 0.048 in. wide and 0.024 to 0.038 in. deep.
4) Are these Metallics wood screws threaded all the way to the head?
At 1/2 in. long, yes, effectively. Metallics specs full thread as 2/3 of the length once a screw reaches 1 inch; screws too short to carry that minimum thread length have threads running as close to the underside of the head as practicable. The JFW128 falls in that short-length group, with 18 threads per inch and a tapered point.
5) Can I use these for mounting electrical devices, plates, and boxes to wood studs or framing?
That's the intended use. Metallics catalogs the JFW tapered point wood screw for electrical work, so it's the screw used to anchor straps, clamps, box ears, and plates into wood. The tapered point and 18 TPI thread are cut for wood, not for metal or masonry: there's no self-drilling tip, so pilot-hole hardwood.
6) Will zinc-plated steel screws hold up outdoors or in a damp location?
Zinc plating over steel gives moderate corrosion resistance, which suits dry interior work: panel boxes, device mounting, trim, cabinetry. For sustained exterior exposure or wet locations, step up to a stainless or hot-dip galvanized fastener instead of this zinc-plated steel screw.
7) Do these screws meet a recognized dimensional standard for a government or institutional spec?
The JFW128 is built to ASME B18.6.1, with threads to ASME B18.6.1-1997. That's the standard dimensional spec for wood screws, so head, slot, and thread dimensions are to published tolerances rather than to a house pattern.
8) Is a slotted drive going to cam out on me if I run these with a drill?
Slotted is the only drive offered on the JFW128. A flat blade in a 0.039 to 0.048 in. slot will walk under power, so these are best set by hand or on a low-speed clutch. If you want a drive that holds a bit under a driver, specify a Phillips or square-drive wood screw instead.
9) Can I get this same screw in a longer length or a bigger quantity?
The JFW series runs other diameters, lengths, and pack quantities by request; JFW128 is specifically the #6 x 1/2 in. flat head slotted version. If you're standardizing a maintenance stock, ask for the sizes you need in the same series so finish and drive stay consistent across the kit.
10) What's the shipping weight of a jar of Metallics JFW128 screws?
A jar of the #6 x 1/2 in. flat head slotted wood screws weighs 0.26 lbs. Useful if you're palletizing a standardization order across a facility, since 100 pieces land well under half a pound per jar.
