Metallics JSHC858SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a Metallics JSHC858SS socket head cap screw thread into a standard 8-32 tapped hole?
Yes. The JSHC858SS is an 8-32 UNC thread at 32 threads per inch, so it mates with any standard #8-32 coarse tapped hole or nut. Shank length under the head is 5/8 inch.
2) How strong are these 18-8 stainless socket head screws compared with an alloy steel one?
Rated at 80,000 psi minimum tensile and 30,000 psi minimum yield, with a hardness of Rockwell B80, plus 10% minimum elongation and 33% minimum reduction of area. That is typical stainless territory, well below a black alloy steel socket cap screw, so pick these for corrosion resistance rather than maximum clamp load.
3) Do these cap screws meet Buy American requirements for a federally funded job?
The Metallics JSHC858SS is flagged both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant in the manufacturer's data, which is what a government or institutional procurement file usually needs on a fastener line item.
4) What size hex key drives these 8-32 socket head cap screws?
They take a hex (Allen) key, not a screwdriver. The head is 0.262 to 0.270 inch across with a head height of 0.159 to 0.164 inch, and the socket depth is 0.077 inch, so a short-arm key works in tight spots. Dimensions follow ASME B18.3-2012.
5) Are these stainless cap screws OK for outdoor or damp electrical enclosures?
The material is 18-8 stainless, an austenitic grade that resists corrosion in wet and outdoor service and holds its mechanical properties above ambient temperature. For heavy chloride or coastal exposure, a 316 stainless fastener is the step up.
6) How are the Metallics 8-32 x 5/8 socket cap screws packaged, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum. Handy for an MRO crib or a van stock bin rather than buying loose pieces.
7) Why choose a socket head cap screw over a slotted or Phillips machine screw for the same 8-32 hole?
Same thread, different drive. The socket head with hex drive lets you put real torque on a small screw without camming out, and the compact head (0.262 to 0.270 inch across) clears tight pockets and counterbores. A slotted or Phillips machine screw is quicker with a handheld driver but strips far sooner at this diameter.
8) What does the jar of 100 of these 8-32 screws weigh for shipping?
0.52 lbs for the packaged jar, per the manufacturer's product data.
