Metallics JPMP85F – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does Type F mean on the Metallics JPMP85F screw?
Type F is a thread cutting screw point. It has machine screw threads with a blunt, chip-cutting tip, so it cuts its own mating thread in an untapped hole in sheet metal or a casting instead of needing a tapped hole or a nut. That makes it useful where you are fastening into an existing hole in a box or enclosure that was never tapped.
2) Is the JPMP85F screw a Phillips pan head?
Yes, pan head with a Phillips drive. The pan head seats flat against the device strap or plate without needing a countersunk hole, and the Phillips recess drives with a standard #2 bit.
3) Can I use the JPMP85F in a standard tapped 8-32 hole, or only an untapped one?
Both. Because the Type F point carries true 8-32 machine screw threads, it will run into an existing tapped 8-32 hole like an ordinary machine screw, and it will also cut its own threads in an undersized untapped hole. One screw covers the device ears, the plate, and the untapped enclosure hole.
4) What is the Metallics part number for the 8-32 x 3/4 Type F pan head screw?
JPMP85F is the Metallics catalog number for the 8-32 x 3/4 inch pan head Phillips Type F steel machine screw, jar of 100. Order by that number to get the full jar rather than a bulk box.
5) Is the JPMP85F screw steel or stainless?
Plain steel, not stainless. For wet, corrosive, or exterior enclosures you want a stainless or coated 8-32 instead; this one is intended for dry interior electrical work.
6) How many Metallics JPMP85F screws come in a jar?
They ship 100 to a jar. The jar pack is what MRO and electrical maintenance stock rooms generally want for a consumable like this, since you are pulling a handful per job rather than ordering by the piece.
