Metallics JBSC812 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will an 8-32 button head socket screw sit flush in a counterbore cut for a standard socket cap screw?
No. Button head screws have a low dome that sits on the surface, not in a counterbore. The JBSC812 head measures 0.298 to 0.312 in. across with a head height of 0.077 to 0.087 in., which is wider and much shallower than a standard 8-32 socket cap screw head. If you need the fastener buried in the part, use a socket cap or flat head screw instead.
2) Can I use these 8-32 socket button head screws in a structural or high-strength application?
No. Metallics states these are not recommended for critical, high-strength applications. They are alloy steel with a hardness of Rockwell C39-44 and a 1940 lb minimum tensile, which is plenty for enclosure covers, panel mounting, and device fastening, but pick a rated structural fastener if a load path depends on it.
3) Will these screws thread into an existing 8-32 tapped hole in an electrical enclosure?
Yes, assuming the hole is a true 8-32. The JBSC812 is a UN thread form at 32 threads per inch made to ANSI/ASME B1.1, which is the same standard the tapped hole in a panel or box would be cut to. Metallics lists the field application as the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC trades.
4) Do Metallics JBSC812 cap screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. Metallics lists this screw as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin given as multiple. If your project has domestic sourcing language in the spec, this part will not satisfy it.
5) What size driver do I need for the Metallics JBSC812 button head cap screw?
It takes a hex key, not a screwdriver. The JBSC812 is a socket head screw with a hex drive, and the internal socket depth is 0.052 in. Head width runs 0.298 to 0.312 in., so a standard 8-32 button head socket wrench set covers it.
6) How are Metallics JBSC812 screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 is the order minimum. That is the buying unit for this part, so a single screw is not an orderable quantity. Each jar weighs 0.4 lbs. Metallics does note other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) Do these black alloy steel screws have any corrosion protection?
No plating or coating. Metallics supplies these screws plain in a black alloy steel finish, so they are not suited to wet or exterior locations. For damp or outdoor work choose a stainless or zinc-plated 8-32 screw instead.
8) What dimensional standard do these socket button head screws conform to?
Head and thread geometry follow ASME B18.3-2012, with threads to ANSI/ASME B1.1. That matters if a submittal calls out a B18.3 socket screw, because head height and across-flats dimensions will fall in the standard's ranges. Metallics also notes that on screws over 1 in. diameter, Class 3A threads are Class 2A instead, and that screws must be at least 3 diameters long to be subject to tensile testing.
