Metallics JFWPB05 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are solid brass screws strong enough for mounting hardware, or should I use steel?
These are solid brass, not brass-plated steel, so they will not rust or stain and they match brass hinges, strike plates, switch plates and cover plates. The trade-off is strength: brass has far less torsional strength than steel, so pre-drill a pilot hole for every screw and seat them by hand or on a low clutch setting. For structural or high-torque work, use a steel screw and save the brass for finish and trim applications where appearance and corrosion resistance decide it.
2) What size Phillips bit do I need for these #6 brass wood screws?
A #2 Phillips driver. The Metallics JFWPB05 screws have a Phillips recess 0.161 to 0.174 inch in diameter and 0.083 to 0.106 inch deep, so a #2 bit seats fully. Brass is soft, so use a bit in good shape and back off the clutch on your driver, a worn #1 or #3 tip will cam out and chew the recess before the head seats.
3) How many brass wood screws come in a jar, and can I buy just a few?
The JFWPB05 ships as a 100-count jar, and 100 pieces is the order minimum. There is no loose or 10-pack break on it. For a punch list where you only need a handful, you are still buying the full jar, which is usually the right call anyway since brass screws get damaged in installation more often than steel.
4) Do these Metallics brass screws meet a dimensional standard for spec work?
They are made to ASME B18.6.1, the standard that governs wood screw head, thread and recess dimensions, with threads to ASME B18.6.1-1997. If a drawing or submittal calls for a #6 flat head Phillips wood screw to B18.6.1, the JFWPB05 answers it in brass.
5) Can I use these for electrical cover plates and device mounting?
Yes, that is the common use for a #6 x 5/8 inch brass flat head Phillips screw, and Metallics catalogs the JFWPB series on the electrical side of the line. The flat head finishes flush in a countersunk plate, and the 5/8 inch length is short enough to land in a wood stud or box ear without punching through thin substrate. Brass also keeps the head from rusting on an exterior or damp-location plate.
6) Where are the Metallics JFWPB brass wood screws made?
Country of origin is China. For procurement files that need domestic-sourcing documentation, that is the figure on record for this item, so flag it before it goes into a job that carries a domestic-content requirement.
