Metallics JTMP48 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics JTMP48 truss head screw?
The JTMP48 is a 10-32 x 3/4 inch machine screw with a truss head and Phillips drive, in zinc plated steel. The 10-32 is a machine screw thread, so it threads into a tapped hole or a nut, not into wood or drywall.
2) Will a 10-32 x 3/4 truss head screw fit a standard electrical box or device ground hole?
10-32 is the standard thread used for grounding screws and device mounting holes in steel electrical boxes, so the JTMP48 threads into those tapped holes. The 3/4 inch length gives extra reach for stacking a bonding jumper, a ring, or a bracket behind the head; where the box is shallow or the tapped hole is blind, a shorter 10-32 is the better pick.
3) Why choose a truss head instead of a pan or round head screw?
A truss head is wide and low, so it spreads bearing load over a larger area and sits closer to the surface. That is what you want when the screw holds a strap, cover, or thin plate with an oversized hole, or where clearance behind a device or plate is tight. A pan head is the choice if you need a smaller head footprint.
4) How is the Metallics JTMP48 screw packaged, and how many come in a pack?
They ship as a jar of 100. The jar pack is what service vans and MRO stockrooms use for loose bin fasteners, so one order covers a stocked position rather than a single job.
5) Is a zinc plated steel machine screw suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
The JTMP48 is zinc plated steel, which is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry indoor use. For exterior, damp, or washdown locations, specify a stainless 10-32 machine screw instead; zinc plating will eventually rust in those conditions.
6) Does the JTMP48 come with nuts or washers?
No. The JTMP48 is sold as screws only, 100 to a jar. If you are fastening through an untapped hole you will need 10-32 machine screw nuts, and any flat or lock washers, ordered separately.
7) What driver do I need for the Metallics JTMP48 screw?
A Phillips driver. On a 10-32 truss head, a #2 Phillips bit is the normal fit. There is no slotted or combo drive on this one.
