Metallics JWN3SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size are the Metallics JWN3SS wing nuts, and will they fit a #8 machine screw?
The JWN3SS is an 8-32 stamped wing nut, so it threads onto any #8-32 machine screw or threaded rod. The 32 threads per inch is the standard fine machine-screw pitch for #8, and the nut is made to ANSI/ASME B18.17. If your screw is #8 coarse-thread wood or sheet metal screw rather than 8-32 machine thread, this will not run on.
2) Are these wing nuts stainless steel and OK for outdoor or damp locations?
They are 18-8 stainless steel, which is the standard austenitic grade used where corrosion resistance matters, so they hold up in damp mechanical rooms, exterior boxes, and washdown areas far better than a plated carbon steel wing nut. Pair them with stainless screws so you are not setting up a dissimilar metal couple.
3) Are the Metallics JWN3SS wing nuts Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The JWN3SS is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your federal, state, or institutional contract carries a domestic-content clause, this nut will not satisfy it and you need a domestically sourced fastener instead.
4) How big are the wings on the Metallics JWN3SS, and is there enough grip to turn it with gloves on?
Wing spread runs 0.72 to 0.78 inch, wing height 0.34 to 0.40 inch, and wing thickness 0.14 to 0.18 inch. That is a small nut, sized for #8 hardware, so gloved hands can start and snug it but it is really meant for finger tightening during rapid assembly and disassembly by hand. For heavy glove work in cold weather, step up to a larger thread size wing nut.
5) Where do electricians and mechanical trades actually use an 8-32 stamped wing nut?
Metallics lists the JWN series for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades. The practical use is anything you expect to open again: cover plates, access panels, temporary ground straps, equipment covers, and panel grounds where a tool-free nut saves a trip for a nut driver. Stamped wing nuts are a light-duty clamping fastener, not a structural one, so for load-carrying connections use a hex nut and torque it.
6) Do the Metallics JWN wing nuts come in sizes other than 8-32?
The JWN series runs other thread sizes and pack quantities beyond the 8-32 JWN3SS, available by request. Published dimensional data does not cover the #4, 7/16 and 1/2 inch diameter type-D stamped wing nuts, so if you need one of those confirm the geometry against your opening before committing.
