Metallics JCW14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What screw size does the Metallics JCW14 finishing washer fit?
The JCW14 is a #12 finishing washer, so it pairs with #12 oval or flat head screws. The countersunk cup seats the screw head flush and spreads the load over the panel, which is why it's used on cover plates and trim rather than as a plain flat washer.
2) Can I use a #12 finishing washer with a #10 or #8 screw?
Not well. The JCW14 is sized for #12, and dropping a smaller #8 or #10 screw through it leaves the head loose in the cup instead of seating against the countersink, so it won't sit flush and won't hold the trim tight. Order the washer that matches the screw gauge you're actually running.
3) Are Metallics JCW14 washers steel or stainless, and what's the finish?
Steel with a nickel plating. The plating gives a bright silver appearance that blends with chrome and stainless trim screws, and adds corrosion resistance for interior work. It is plated carbon steel, not solid stainless, so it isn't the pick for wet or outdoor exposure.
4) What are finishing washers actually used for on an electrical job?
They go under the head of an exposed screw where the look matters or where the screw would otherwise dig into the material: switch and receptacle cover plates, panel trim, escutcheons, equipment covers. The JCW14 is catalogued for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades, and the nickel-plated cup gives a clean seated head plus a little extra bearing surface so the screw doesn't crush thin plate.
5) How many finishing washers come in a jar of Metallics JCW14?
They ship 100 to a jar. The jar packaging keeps them together on a service van or in a shop drawer, which is the usual way an electrical or mechanical contractor buys a consumable trim fastener like this.
6) What does a jar of Metallics JCW14 washers weigh for shipping or van stock?
A jar comes in at 0.26 lbs, in a container measuring 3 x 3 x 2.15 inches. Small enough to keep several sizes side by side in a parts bin without eating shelf space.
