Metallics JSN11D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wrench or socket size do I need for a Metallics JSN11D 8-32 hex nut?
Across the flats the JSN11D measures 0.378 to 0.397 inch, and on this fastener the width across flats is the wrench size, so an 11/32 inch wrench or socket is the one to grab. A 5/16 nut driver will be too small.
2) Will these 8-32 stainless nuts thread onto the 8-32 machine screws used for device plates and box mounting?
Yes. The JSN11D is an internally threaded 8-32 hex nut, 32 threads per inch, made to ANSI/ASME B18.2.2 dimensions, so it mates with any standard 8-32 machine screw, including the 8-32 screws used on wiring devices, cover plates and box mounting hardware.
3) Do Metallics JSN11D nuts meet Buy American and ARRA requirements for a federal or public job?
Yes on both counts. The JSN11D is flagged Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as the United States, which is what a government or institutional submittal package normally asks for on fasteners.
4) Are these nuts corrosion resistant enough for outdoor or damp-location electrical work?
They are 18-8 stainless steel, the austenitic grade used where plain or zinc plated steel would rust, so they hold up in damp, wet and exterior locations. Keep in mind 18-8 is not the 316 marine grade, so in constant salt spray a 316 nut is the better call.
5) How many 8-32 stainless hex nuts come in a jar, and can I buy fewer?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum, so one jar is the smallest purchase. Other sizes and quantities are available by request if 100 of this size is not what the job needs.
6) How thick is an 8-32 hex nut, and will it clear behind a tight panel or enclosure wall?
Nut height runs 0.117 to 0.130 inch, so figure roughly an eighth of an inch of stack behind the panel plus whatever screw tail protrudes. That is a standard machine screw nut height, not a thin jam nut, so in a very shallow cavity you would want a jam nut instead.
7) How hard are these stainless nuts, and will they gall or strip when I torque them down?
Hardness is Rockwell B80 to C32. That is the normal range for 18-8 stainless, which work hardens and is prone to thread galling when run on fast or dry against a stainless screw. Run them in slowly, or use an anti-seize, and they will pull up without seizing.
8) What is the bearing surface across the corners on the JSN11D, for sizing a washer or slot?
The head width figure on the JSN11D is 0.302 to 0.344 inch, and across the flats it runs 0.378 to 0.397 inch. Size any clearance slot or counterbore off the larger across flats figure so the nut can be turned, and a standard #8 flat washer covers the bearing face.
