Metallics SP170 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do the Metallics SP170 screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. The SP170 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, these will not satisfy it.
2) Is the SP170 wall plate screw head going to sit flush, or does it stick up above the plate?
It is an oval head with a slotted drive, so it seats into the countersink of a standard wall plate and leaves a low rounded crown proud of the surface rather than sitting dead flush. That is the normal look for a device plate screw. Use a slotted driver, not Phillips.
3) Are these stainless steel wall plate screws suitable for damp or corrosive locations?
The screws are 18-8 stainless steel, the common austenitic grade used where plated carbon steel would rust, so they hold up better than a painted steel screw in kitchens, bathrooms, food service areas and washdown rooms. The head is finished in a stainless color to match stainless plates.
4) How many Metallics SP170 screws come in a pack, and can I buy fewer?
The SP170 ships as a 100-piece clamshell, and that box of 100 is the order minimum, so it is sold by the pack rather than loose by the piece. Handy for a truck stock or a punch list where you are swapping plates across a lot of openings.
5) Can I use these screws for anything besides wall plates?
They are catalogued as a wall plate screw but 6-32 machine screws in 18-8 stainless get used across electrical, plumbing and HVAC work for device straps, small covers and light-duty fastening into mating 6-32 threads. They are machine-threaded, not self-tapping, so they need an existing tapped hole or a nut.
6) How big is the SP170 clamshell package for shelf or bin storage?
The hanging clamshell measures 3.75 in by 2.75 in by 1.5 in and weighs 0.29 lbs filled with the 100 screws. It is a visual plastic hanging box, so it pegs on a display hook or drops into a van bin without repacking.
