Metallics JPMP43 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics JPMP43 8-32 screws work for mounting devices and plates in standard electrical boxes?
Yes. 8-32 is the standard machine screw thread for receptacle, switch and cover plate mounting in outlet boxes, and the JPMP43 is an 8-32 x 5/8 in. pan head Phillips machine screw in zinc plated steel. The 5/8 in. length gives you enough thread to pick up box ears or a mounting strap without bottoming out. Driver is a #2 Phillips.
2) Will a pan head screw sit flat under a device plate, or do I need something lower profile?
The pan head on the JPMP43 runs 0.105 to 0.115 in. high with a head width of 0.306 to 0.322 in. That is a rounded head that stands proud of the surface, so it is right for strap, bracket and ground screw style mounting where the head is exposed or captured in a recess. If you need the head flush with the finished surface, you want a flat head screw in a countersunk hole instead.
3) Can I use the Metallics JPMP43 screws on a Buy American or ARRA funded project?
The JPMP43 is flagged as both Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your contract requires documented origin on each shipment, ask for the cert with the order.
4) How many 8-32 x 5/8 Metallics machine screws come in a jar?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum. The jar pack is the usual choice for a service truck or a shop bin where you are grabbing a few at a time rather than opening a bulk box.
5) Are these Metallics machine screws made to a recognized dimensional standard?
They are manufactured to ASME B18.6.3-2010, the standard covering machine screw head and thread dimensions, with material per AISI 1006 - 1022 low carbon steel. Thread pitch is 32 threads per inch. If a submittal or spec section calls out B18.6.3, these meet that reference.
6) What is the tensile strength and hardness of these zinc plated steel machine screws?
60,000 psi minimum tensile, hardness Rockwell B70 to B100. That is standard low carbon steel machine screw strength, fine for device mounting, panel assembly, enclosure covers and bracket work. It is not a structural fastener, so do not substitute it where a drawing calls for a Grade 5 or Grade 8 bolt.
7) Is zinc plated steel good enough for outdoor or damp locations, or should I go stainless?
Zinc plating gives moderate corrosion resistance and is intended for dry indoor use: panels, enclosures in conditioned space, device boxes. For wet, exterior or corrosive environments, step up to a stainless machine screw in the same 8-32 x 5/8 size. Worth noting on stainless: there is no single performance standard for stainless machine screws, so published tensile figures for them are approximations.
8) Will a #1 Phillips bit drive these, or do I need a #2?
Use a #2 Phillips. The recess diameter is 0.175 in. with a gaging depth of 0.071 to 0.097 in., which is sized for a #2 point. A #1 bit will ride high in the recess and cam out, stripping the head on an impact or drill driver.
9) Can I get the Metallics PMP pan head screws in other lengths or larger quantities?
Yes. Other sizes and quantities in the PMP pan head Phillips machine screw line are available by request. The JPMP43 covers the 8-32 x 5/8 in. size in a 100 count jar, which is the common size for device and cover plate work.
