Metallics JSSMSS52 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and type of set screw is the Metallics JSSMSS52?
It's an M5 x 5 mm socket set screw with a cup point, in black steel. The M5 is the thread diameter and the 5 is the length, so it's a short grub screw driven with a hex key through the socket in the head rather than an external drive. Order it as Metallics JSSMSS52.
2) Will a cup point set screw hold on a smooth shaft or collar?
Cup point is the standard choice for clamping onto a shaft or collar. The ring-shaped edge bites into the mating surface and resists loosening, which is why it's the default point style on most socket set screws. It does mark the shaft, so if you need a non-marring hold on a finished surface a flat or nylon-tipped point is the better call. The JSSMSS52 is the cup point version in M5 x 5.
3) Do I need a hex key or a screwdriver for these M5 set screws?
A hex key. These are socket set screws, so the drive is an internal hex recess in the end of the screw, not a slot or Phillips head. For an M5 socket set screw that's typically a 2.5 mm hex. There is no head to grip, so the screw seats flush or below the surface of the part it's holding.
4) Is the black finish on these Metallics set screws corrosion resistant for outdoor use?
The JSSMSS52 is black steel, which is a plain alloy-steel set screw with a black oxide type finish. That's an indoor, dry-location fastener. For wet or exterior work pick a stainless set screw in the same M5 x 5 size instead.
5) How many Metallics JSSMSS52 screws come in a jar?
100 pieces per jar. The jar pack is the sell unit, which suits a service truck or a shop drawer where you're pulling one or two M5 set screws at a time rather than buying by the box for a single job.
