Metallics JPMP89BR – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will a 2 inch long 8-32 screw be too long for mounting a cover plate on a standard device box?
For a flush cover plate, yes, it is longer than you need, a 2 inch 8-32 is specified when there is depth to make up: mounting through a plaster ring, an extension ring, a thick stone or tile surface, or standing a fixture strap off the box. For a plate sitting directly on a standard box, a shorter 8-32 is the right call. The thread is identical, so only the length changes.
2) Is the JPMP89BR screw solid brass or plated steel?
Brass. The JPMP89BR is a brass machine screw, which is what electricians reach for when a steel screw would rust or when the head needs to match brass trim or a brass cover plate. Brass is also non-magnetic, which matters on some low voltage and instrument work.
3) Does the JPMP89BR screw need a nut or a tapped hole?
A machine screw like this has a straight machine thread, not a self tapping or wood thread, so it needs either a tapped 8-32 hole (box ears, fixture strap, mounting bracket) or an 8-32 nut on the back side. It will not hold in wood, drywall, or an untapped sheet metal hole.
4) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JPMP89BR?
One hundred screws per jar. Metallics packages the JPMP89BR in a jar, which is the shop and van pack for fasteners pulled a handful at a time rather than a bulk bag.
5) What is the exact part number to order the Metallics 8-32 x 2 brass pan head screw?
Order Metallics JPMP89BR. That number covers the 8-32 x 2 inch brass pan head Phillips machine screw in the 100 count jar; it is a single configuration part, so there is no finish or length option to specify.
