Metallics JSE5 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size are the Metallics JSE5 screw eyes?
The JSE5 screw eye is a 1/4 inch diameter by 3-3/4 inch fastener in steel with a zinc finish. The 1/4 inch refers to the shank diameter and 3-3/4 inches is the overall length, so you need enough depth in the wood member to take the threaded portion without the eye bottoming out on the surface.
2) Can I drive the JSE5 screw eye into masonry or metal studs?
No. This is a wood screw eye, so it threads into wood framing, blocking, or a wood plug only. For concrete, block, or brick you need a masonry anchor rated for the load, and for steel studs or structural steel you need a threaded eye bolt with a nut or a beam clamp instead.
3) Is the JSE5 screw eye plated for corrosion resistance?
It is steel with a zinc plating. Zinc plating handles interior and protected applications fine, but it is not a hot dip galvanized or stainless part, so for direct outdoor exposure, wet locations, or coastal air you want a heavier coating or stainless.
4) Should I pre-drill for a 1/4 inch screw eye?
In hardwood or near an edge, yes. A pilot hole sized under the 1/4 inch shank keeps the wood from splitting and lets you turn the eye in with a bar through the loop. In soft framing lumber most installers drive it without a pilot, but the 3-3/4 inch length means a fair amount of thread engagement and the eye will twist hard by hand at the end.
