Metallics JOHP10SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will stainless 18-8 machine screws hold up in damp or outdoor electrical boxes?
18-8 stainless is the material here, which is the common austenitic stainless used for corrosion resistance in wet, humid, and coastal locations. That makes these a better choice than plated steel screws for exterior boxes, wash-down areas, pool and marina work, and food plants where plated screws rust and seize in the strap.
2) What is the difference between an oval head and a flat or round head device screw?
The oval head on the JOHP10SS has a countersunk underside with a domed top, so it seats into the chamfered hole of a wall plate or cover and leaves a low rounded crown proud of the surface. A flat head sits fully flush and a round head sits entirely on top of the plate with a flat bearing face. If your plate holes are countersunk, oval or flat is what you want; a round head will stand off and can rock the plate.
3) What is the exact part number to order for the Metallics 10-32 x 3/4 stainless oval head screw?
Order Metallics JOHP10SS. That is the manufacturer part number for the 10-32 x 3/4 inch oval head Phillips machine screw in 18-8 stainless, packed as a jar of 100.
4) Can I use a 10-32 machine screw to fasten into sheet metal or drywall?
No. A 10-32 machine screw needs a mating tapped thread or a nut, which on electrical work means the tapped holes in a device strap, box ear, cover plate, or a threaded ground lug. It will not cut its own thread in sheet metal and it has no anchor for drywall, so for those you need a self-tapping sheet metal screw or a hollow wall anchor instead.
5) How many screws come in the Metallics JOHP10SS pack?
One jar of 100 screws. The jar pack suits a van stock or a shop bin rather than a single repair, so if you are standardizing on stainless device screws across a building it is the quantity to order per size.
6) Do these take a Phillips driver or a slotted driver?
Phillips only. The JOHP10SS is a Phillips drive oval head machine screw, so it is not a combination head and a slotted blade will not seat in it.
