Metallics JSHC838SS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will a #8-32 socket head cap screw thread into a standard 8-32 tapped hole or nut?
Yes. The Metallics JSHC838SS is a #8-32 UNC thread with 32 threads per inch, so it mates with any standard 8-32 coarse tapped hole, nut, or insert. Thread length is the full 3/8 in. shank, so it suits thin brackets, enclosure covers, and device plates rather than deep blind holes.
2) Do I get a single screw or a box when I order the JSHC838SS?
It ships as a jar of 100. The order minimum is 100 count, so the smallest purchase is one jar, and total shipping weight for that jar is 0.42 lbs. Other sizes and quantities can be had by request.
3) Is 18-8 stainless the right choice for outdoor or wet-location enclosures?
18-8 stainless is the standard austenitic grade used for corrosion resistance in damp and outdoor service, and that is the material of the JSHC838SS 8-32 cap screw. It also holds its mechanical and performance capability above ambient temperature, which matters in hot electrical rooms and near heat-producing equipment. For heavy salt or coastal exposure, a 316 grade is the step up.
4) How strong are these stainless socket head cap screws compared to an alloy steel one?
Rated at 80,000 psi minimum tensile and 30,000 psi minimum yield, with a hardness of Rockwell B80. That is typical stainless territory, well below a black alloy steel socket cap screw, so pick stainless here for corrosion resistance rather than for maximum clamp load. Elongation is 10 percent minimum and reduction of area 33 percent minimum on machined specimens.
5) Does this fastener qualify for a Buy American or ARRA federal project?
Metallics lists the JSHC838SS as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, which is what a government, school, or healthcare procurement file needs on record. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your specification requires a single named origin, confirm that separately for the lot you receive.
6) Is a socket head cap screw better than a slotted or Phillips machine screw for panel work?
A socket head takes a hex key in the recess instead of a blade or cross driver, so you can put real torque on it without camming out, and the cylindrical head sits neatly in a counterbore. The JSHC838SS uses a hex drive in a socket head. Where you need a flush surface with no counterbore, a flat head machine screw is the better pick; where the head will be driven repeatedly or torqued hard, the socket head is.
