Metallics JRBWS27 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and type of screw is the Metallics JRBWS27?
The JRBWS27 is a #10 x 1-1/2 inch wood screw with a round head and a single slotted drive, in brass. It ships 100 pieces to a jar, so it's a bulk count rather than a single fastener.
2) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JRBWS27, and can I buy just a few?
It's sold as a jar of 100 pieces, not loose by the each. If you only need a handful for one cover plate or strap, you're still buying the full jar of 100.
3) Will a #10 x 1-1/2 round head wood screw hold in drywall alone?
No. A wood screw like the JRBWS27 cuts its own thread in wood and needs solid backing, a stud, a joist, or a wood blocking member. In hollow drywall it will strip out. For a hollow-wall mount use a toggle or self-drilling drywall anchor instead and match the anchor's screw size.
4) Why use brass screws instead of steel for electrical work?
Brass is non-ferrous and non-magnetic, and it resists corrosion better than plain steel, which is why brass round head wood screws get specified for exposed and decorative work and for damp locations where a plated steel screw rusts and stains. The trade-off is that brass is softer than steel, so pilot-drill hardwood and don't overdrive it or you'll twist the head off. These are catalogued as electrical fasteners.
5) Does a slotted round head screw need a pilot hole?
In hardwood and in any trim you don't want to split, yes, pilot it. The JRBWS27 is a slotted drive, which cams out more easily than a Phillips or square drive, so a pilot hole also keeps the blade seated and stops you from chewing up a brass head that will be visible once installed. The round head seats on the surface rather than countersinking, so no countersink is needed.
