Metallics JSS38516SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and thread is the Metallics JSS38516SS socket set screw?
It's a 3/8-16 x 5/16 socket set screw, so 3/8 inch diameter with 16 threads per inch (coarse UNC) and 5/16 inch length under the head. The 16 TPI pitch means it mates with standard 3/8-16 tapped holes.
2) Is the Metallics JSS38516SS a cup point set screw, and what does that mean for holding a bus bar or lug?
Cup point, yes. The cup point has a hollowed, ringed tip that bites into the mating surface and resists backing out under vibration, which is why it's the common choice for clamping conductors, bus bar, and lugs in place. It digs a small mark into whatever it bears on, so it's not the choice where you need the clamped part left unmarred.
3) What part number do I order for the 3/8-16 x 5/16 stainless socket set screw from Metallics?
Metallics part number JSS38516SS. That single MPN covers the 3/8-16 x 5/16 cup point socket set screw in a 100-piece jar.
4) What tool drives the JSS38516SS set screw?
It's a socket (hex key) drive set screw with no external head, so it drives with an Allen wrench and seats flush or below the surface of the collar or lug it threads into. Nothing protrudes once it's set.
5) How many Metallics JSS38516SS set screws come in a jar?
100 pieces per jar. The jar pack is the standard shop or van-stock format for this screw, which suits an electrician or MRO stockroom keeping one size on hand rather than buying loose counts.
