Metallics JTMN3 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Why use a nylon thumb screw instead of a steel machine screw?
Two reasons drive the choice on the JTMN3. The nylon body is non-conductive and non-corroding, which is why it turns up on electrical covers, enclosure doors, and plates where a metal fastener against a live part is a problem. The thumb head means it tightens and backs out by hand, with no screwdriver, for covers that get opened repeatedly. Trade-off: nylon has far less clamp strength than steel, so it is not for structural or high-torque joints.
2) Will an 8-32 x 3/4 nylon thumb screw work in a tapped enclosure cover hole?
Yes, provided the hole is tapped 8-32. With 3/4 inch of length you get enough thread to pass through a cover and still engage a tapped flange or a nut behind it; on thin sheet-metal covers you may have thread left over, so pair it with a nut or standoff rather than relying on one or two threads of engagement.
3) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JTMN3?
Each jar holds 100 of the 8-32 x 3/4 nylon thumb screws. The jar pack is the standard way these ship, which suits a service van or a shop drawer where you pull a handful at a time rather than a counted bag.
4) What part number do I order for the Metallics nylon thumb screw?
Order Metallics JTMN3. That is the single model on the 8-32 x 3/4 nylon thumb screw, supplied by the jar of 100, so there is no finish or length option to specify.
