Metallics JMPMP516SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread pitch do the Metallics JMPMP516SS M5 machine screws have, and will they thread into a standard M5 tapped hole?
Thread pitch is 0.8 mm, which is the standard coarse pitch for M5. They'll thread into any M5 x 0.8 tapped hole or M5 nut. The screw is 16 mm long under the pan head, so allow for that when figuring grip length plus thread engagement.
2) Are these M5 pan head screws stainless and OK for outdoor or damp locations?
They're 18-8 stainless, the common austenitic grade used for general corrosion resistance. That makes them suitable for damp interior work, outdoor enclosures, and wash-down areas where plated carbon steel would rust. For salt spray or chlorinated environments, 316 is the usual step up.
3) Do these metric pan head screws meet a dimensional standard so the head will sit right in a countersink or recess?
Head geometry follows ISO 1580, the metric standard for slotted/cross-recess pan head screws, so the head diameter and height match what any ISO 1580 drawing or clearance detail calls for. Pan head means it sits proud of the surface with a flat bearing face, not flush, so it is not a substitute for a flat head in a countersunk hole.
4) Will M5 x 16mm screws work for mounting electrical devices and enclosure covers?
That's the intended use. Metallics catalogs the MPMP series as electrical-supply machine screws, and M5 x 16 mm in 18-8 stainless is a common size for enclosure covers, panel mounting, DIN rail, and bracket work with tapped M5 holes. Note it's metric, so it will not thread into 10-24 or 10-32 device prep found on North American boxes and plates.
5) How many M5 x 16mm screws come in a jar, and can I buy just a few?
They ship in a jar with a 100-count minimum, so the smallest order is a 100-piece jar rather than loose pieces. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request.
6) What driver do I need for the Metallics JMPMP516SS screws?
Phillips cross recess. For an M5 pan head, a #2 Phillips bit is the normal fit. Stainless galls easily, so drive them with steady pressure and avoid overspeeding an impact driver on tapped aluminum.
7) Can I use these on a federally funded job with domestic sourcing requirements?
Metallics lists these M5 screws as Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, with country of origin China. Procurement offices read those two flags differently depending on the contract clause in play, so match the flag to the clause your spec cites before committing on a public job.
8) How much does a jar of these M5 stainless screws weigh?
A jar runs 0.86 lbs, with the container measuring 3 x 3 x 2.15 inches. Useful if you're estimating a parts bin layout or shipping weight on a multi-jar MRO order.
