Metallics JSSMSS56 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and thread is the Metallics JSSMSS56 socket set screw?
It's an M5 x 12 socket set screw, so a 5 mm metric thread with a 12 mm length. Metric only, which means it will not thread into an imperial tapped hole such as a 10-32 or 1/4-20. Check the tapped hole on your pulley, collar, or coupling is M5 before ordering.
2) Does the JSSMSS56 set screw have a cup point or a flat point?
Cup point. The JSSMSS56 is a cup point socket set screw, which bites into the shaft surface and gives the best hold against rotation on a plain round shaft. If you need to clamp a shaft without marring it, or you're seating into a drilled spot or a keyway flat, a flat point or cone point style is the one to specify instead.
3) What drive does this set screw take, and what tool do I need on the truck?
It's a socket (internal hex) set screw, so it drives with a hex key, not a screwdriver. There is no external head to grip, which is what lets the screw sit flush or below the surface of a collar or hub.
4) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JSSMSS56, and what's the finish?
100 screws per jar, packaged in a jar rather than a box or bag, which keeps loose fasteners contained on a van shelf or in a parts bin. The screws are steel with a black finish.
5) Is a black finish steel set screw okay for outdoor or damp locations?
Treat it as a dry interior fastener. The JSSMSS56 is plain steel with a black finish, not stainless and not hot dip galvanized, so in wet, washdown, or exterior service it will corrode. For those locations specify a stainless steel set screw in the same M5 x 12 size.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the M5 x 12 black socket set screw jar?
Order it as Metallics JSSMSS56. That number covers the M5 x 12 cup point socket set screw in black steel, 100 to a jar, and it's the only configuration that number carries.
