Metallics JSSMSS55 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will an M5 x 10 cup point set screw work for securing a collar or lug on an electrical assembly?
That is the usual job for it. The JSSMSS55 is a fastener sold for electrical work, and an M5 cup point socket set screw is the type used to lock collars, hubs, pulleys, and set screw lugs onto a shaft or conductor. Check that the tapped hole is metric M5 and not a 10-24 or 10-32 inch thread before ordering, because an M5 will not run into an inch tapped hole.
2) Is the JSSMSS55 set screw a cup point or a flat point?
Cup point. The JSSMSS55 has a cup (hollow, ring edged) tip, which bites into the shaft or bus it bears on and resists backing out under vibration. If you need to clamp a part you intend to slide or reposition without marring it, a flat point screw is the better choice, since a cup point leaves a ring indentation.
3) Does this Metallics set screw take a hex key or a screwdriver?
Hex key. It is a socket set screw, so it is driven internally with an Allen wrench rather than a blade or Phillips driver, which is what lets it sit flush or below the surface of a collar, lug, or hub.
4) What material and finish is the JSSMSS55 M5 set screw?
Steel with a black finish. Black oxide style steel set screws are intended for dry indoor use in enclosures, panels, and equipment; for a wet, washdown, or outdoor location you want a stainless set screw instead, since a black steel screw has little corrosion protection once the finish is scratched by the hex key.
5) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JSSMSS55?
One hundred screws per jar, and the jar is the pack format rather than a bag or box, so it reseals and stacks on a shop shelf or in a van bin. That quantity suits an electrical or MRO crew keeping a standing stock of M5 set screws for lug and collar work.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the M5 x 10 black steel socket set screw?
JSSMSS55 is the Metallics part number for the M5 x 10 cup point socket set screw in black steel, supplied in jars of 100. That is the number to quote on a purchase order or to a distributor.
