Metallics JSS614SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size thread and length is the Metallics JSS614SS set screw?
It is a 6-32 thread (number 6 diameter, 32 threads per inch) with a 1/4 inch length. That means it threads into any 6-32 tapped hole, which is the common small-machine-screw size on device hardware, knobs, collars, and electrical trim.
2) Is the JSS614SS screw stainless, and will it hold up outdoors or in a damp location?
The JSS614SS is 18-8 stainless steel, the austenitic 300-series grade used where plated carbon steel would rust. It suits damp interior, washdown, and general exterior work. For salt spray or coastal exposure, 316 stainless is the step up.
3) What point and drive does this Metallics socket set screw have, and what tool do I need?
It is a socket set screw with a cup point, so it drives with a hex (Allen) key in the internal socket, not a screwdriver. The cup point bites into a shaft or mating part and resists backing out under vibration, which is why it is the default choice for locking collars, knobs, and pulleys.
4) Can I use a cup point set screw to hold a soft or hollow shaft without damaging it?
A cup point like the one on the JSS614SS leaves a ring-shaped indent in the mating surface, which is what gives it its grip. On a hardened steel shaft that is fine. On aluminum, brass, plastic, or thin-wall tube it will mar or dimple the part, so a flat point (or a brass-tipped screw) is the better call there.
5) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JSS614SS?
Each jar holds 100 screws. It ships in Metallics' jar pack, which is the bench-stock format, so it is meant for a shop drawer or service truck rather than a single repair.
6) What part number do I order for this 6-32 x 1/4 stainless socket set screw?
Order Metallics JSS614SS. That single model number covers the 6-32 x 1/4 inch 18-8 stainless cup point socket set screw in the 100-count jar; there are no finish or length options to specify.
