Metallics JSS1412SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Are these Metallics set screws stainless steel, and can they be used outdoors?
These are 18-8 stainless set screws. 18-8 is the common austenitic stainless grade (roughly 18 percent chromium, 8 percent nickel) used for general corrosion resistance, which makes it the usual pick for damp, outdoor and washdown locations as opposed to a plain steel set screw. It is not the grade specified for direct, prolonged salt water immersion, where 316 is called for.
2) Is the JSS1412SS a cup point or a cone point set screw?
Cup point. The cupped, slightly recessed tip bites into the shaft or part it clamps against, which is why cup point is the default choice for locking a collar, pulley or grounding lug onto a shaft without pre-dimpling it. If your application needs a permanent seated location, that is where a cone or dog point would be specified instead.
3) What tool drives the Metallics JSS1412SS screw?
A hex key. It is a socket set screw, meaning the drive is an internal hex recess in the end of the screw, not an external head, so the screw can sit flush or below the surface of the part it is holding.
4) What is the exact part number to order for the 1/4-20 x 1/2 inch stainless socket set screw from Metallics?
Order Metallics part number JSS1412SS. That single number covers the 1/4-20 by 1/2 inch 18-8 stainless cup point socket set screw in the 100 count jar, so there is no separate finish or pack suffix to specify.
5) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JSS1412SS?
One hundred per jar. Metallics packs these in a jar rather than a bag, which is what most electrical and MRO stockrooms want for a loose fastener kept on a shelf and drawn from a handful at a time.
