Metallics SP282P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the Metallics SP282P 6-32 screw thread into a standard wall plate or receptacle yoke?
Yes. The SP282P is a 6-32 thread wall plate screw, and 6-32 is the standard machine thread used on North American switch, receptacle, and device mounting holes, so it threads into standard device yokes and wall plates. Thread pitch and diameter are what matter here, not the 2 inch length.
2) What head style is the SP282P and will it sit flush on a wall plate?
Oval head, Phillips drive. An oval head seats into the countersunk hole of a standard wall plate and leaves a low, slightly domed crown, so it looks like the screw the plate shipped with. It is not a flat head that goes dead flush and not a round head that stands proud. Drive it with a standard Phillips bit.
3) Can I use the Metallics SP282P to mount a receptacle or switch to the box, not just the cover plate?
Yes, as long as the thread matches, and it does. Device mounting ears and wall plates both use 6-32, so the SP282P works for either job. At 2 inches it is useful when a device has to be pulled forward and held against a deep box or ring. For ordinary flush box work the shorter 6-32 screws already supplied with the device are the practical choice.
4) Is the Metallics SP282P sold individually or in a box?
It comes 100 pieces to the pack. That is a quantity aimed at an electrician or MRO stockroom rather than a one-plate repair, which is typical for long device screws since you only need them on the openings that came out deep.
5) How do I order the Metallics long wall plate screw by part number?
Order it as Metallics SP282P. That single model number covers the 6-32 x 2 inch oval head Phillips wall plate screw in the 100 piece pack, with no finish or length options to specify.
