Metallics JRBWS11 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and type of screw is the Metallics JRBWS11?
The JRBWS11 is a #8 x 5/8 inch wood screw with a round head and a slotted drive, in brass. It ships in a jar of 100 pieces, so you get a working quantity rather than a single fastener.
2) Is the JRBWS11 a machine screw or a wood screw?
It's a wood screw, not a machine screw. The thread is made to cut into wood or a soft substrate, so it won't mate with a tapped hole or a nut. If you're fastening into a threaded device yoke or a metal box, you need a machine screw instead.
3) Why use a brass screw instead of a steel one on an electrical job?
Brass is the usual choice where appearance matters or where you want a non-ferrous fastener, which is why it shows up on cover plates, trim, and finish work rather than structural framing. The JRBWS11 is a brass #8 x 5/8 inch screw. For load-bearing or high-torque work, a steel screw is the better pick since brass is the softer metal and the slotted head can cam out under heavy driving.
4) Does a round head slotted screw need a countersunk hole?
No. A round head seats on top of the surface rather than pulling flush, so no countersink is needed, just a pilot hole sized for a #8 shank. If you need the head flush or below the surface, you want a flat head screw instead of this one.
5) How many screws come in the Metallics JRBWS11 jar, and is it good for restocking a van or shop drawer?
Each jar holds 100 of the #8 x 5/8 inch brass screws. The jar pack is made for bin and van stock, where you want a resealable container for a single common size rather than a loose bulk bag.
