Metallics RM83M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the 2 inch length too long for mounting a receptacle flush in a normal box?
For a standard box with a flush device yoke, 2 inches is longer than you need and the excess thread will bottom out or stick out behind the strap. The RM83M is for built-out conditions: deep plaster rings, tile or stone over drywall, spacer stacks, and extension rings. Keep a shorter 6-32 on the truck for ordinary flush mounting.
2) Are these zinc plated screws okay for outdoor or damp locations?
The RM83M is zinc plated steel, which is a mild corrosion coating suited to dry and normally damp interior work. For wet locations, coastal exposure, or direct weather, specify stainless rather than zinc plated steel.
3) What driver do I need for the RM83M screws?
Combination drive, so the head takes either a flat blade or a Phillips #2. That matters on a device trim-out where you are already holding a slotted driver for the terminal screws, no bit change needed.
4) How are the RM83M screws packaged for MRO stocking?
Bulk box of 1000 pieces, single part number RM83M. That quantity suits a shop bin or a facility parts crib standardizing on one long 6-32 for device and box work rather than buying small carded packs per job.
5) Is a round head screw a problem under a cover plate?
Round head sits proud of the surface, so use the RM83M where the head is behind the plate or into a bracket, not where you need a screw to sit flush in a countersunk hole. For a finished, flush face you want a flat or oval head instead.
