Metallics JTRM86 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What drivers will fit the Metallics JTRM86 machine screw?
The JTRM86 has a tri-drive head, so the same screw takes a flat blade, a #2 Phillips, or a square (Robertson) driver. Handy on panel and device work where you already have one driver in hand and don't want to swap bits.
2) Is the 8-32 x 1 inch Metallics tri-drive screw a machine screw or a self-tapping screw?
It's a machine screw, cut 8-32, meaning 32 threads per inch on a #8 shank. It needs a mating tapped hole or a nut, it won't cut its own thread in sheet metal. For enclosure covers, device boxes and fixture canopies that already carry 8-32 tapped holes, that's exactly what you want.
3) Will a 1 inch long 8-32 screw be too long for a standard device box and plaster ring?
One inch of shank is longer than the typical 8-32 box screw. It's the right pick when you're stacking through a plaster ring, an extension ring, or a fixture canopy and need the extra reach to catch the tapped ear. On a flush box with a single device, a 1 inch screw will bottom out or protrude, so use a shorter 8-32 there.
4) Will the round head on these Metallics screws sit flush with the surface?
No. It's a round head, so it sits proud of the material with a domed crown and a flat bearing face underneath. If you need the head buried level with the plate or panel, you need a flat head screw in a countersunk hole instead.
5) Are these zinc plated screws OK for damp or outdoor locations?
The JTRM86 is steel with zinc plating, which handles indoor and normally dry locations and gives modest corrosion resistance. For wet locations, coastal exposure, or anywhere washdown chemicals are used, specify stainless 8-32 machine screws instead.
6) How do Metallics JTRM86 screws come packaged for a service truck or shop stock?
They ship in a jar, 100 pieces, which is why they work well as bin or truck stock for an electrical shop. The jar keeps the count contained rather than loose in a drawer.
7) Are Metallics JTRM86 machine screws made in the USA?
Yes, the JTRM86 8-32 x 1 inch tri-drive machine screw is made in the USA. That matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic sourcing requirements.
