Metallics JFMP801SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and thread is the Metallics JFMP801SS machine screw?
It's a 6-32 x 1/2 inch machine screw, so a #6 diameter with 32 threads per inch and a half-inch length. That means it threads into a tapped 6-32 hole or takes a 6-32 nut. The 1/2 inch length is measured on a flat head screw, so it is overall length including the head.
2) Are these Metallics 6-32 screws stainless steel suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
These are 316 stainless steel, the marine grade with molybdenum added, which is the stainless commonly specified for coastal, wet, washdown and chemically aggressive locations where 304 would eventually pit. For indoor dry boxes you can use a cheaper plated screw, but if you are mounting devices outdoors, near salt air, or in a water treatment or food plant, 316 is the right call.
3) Will a 6-32 machine screw work for mounting devices and plates in an electrical box?
6-32 is the standard thread for electrical device and cover plate mounting in North America, so yes, these are the usual thread for receptacles, switches and plates in a box. Watch the length: at 1/2 inch these are short, which works for a plate or a flush application but not for a device that needs to be stood off from a deeply recessed box. Also note the head is flat and countersunk, so for a standard device yoke or a non-countersunk plate hole you may want a pan or oval head instead.
4) What head and driver type do the JFMP801SS screws use?
Flat head, Phillips drive. The flat head is countersunk, so it sits flush in a chamfered or countersunk hole rather than standing proud like a pan or round head. If you need a screw that seats flush on a cover plate or a bracket face, this is the profile; if your hole is not countersunk, a pan head machine screw is the better match.
5) What is the exact part number to order these 316 stainless flat head screws?
The Metallics part number is JFMP801SS. That one number covers the 6-32 x 1/2 inch flat head Phillips machine screw in 316 stainless, packed 100 per jar, so there are no separate finish or size codes to add.
6) How many screws come in the Metallics JFMP801SS package?
They ship 100 to a jar. The jar pack is handy on a van or a service cart since it reseals and keeps the loose 6-32 hardware from mixing with everything else in the bin. Order quantity is counted in jars, not individual screws.
