Metallics MSCW38SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size bolt or rod does the Metallics MSCW38SS channel washer fit?
The MSCW38SS is a 3/8 inch channel washer, so it pairs with 3/8-16 strut bolts, hex bolts, or 3/8 inch threaded rod running in metal framing channel.
2) Are these channel washers stainless steel, and can they be used outdoors or in a wet location?
Stainless steel is the material, which is why electricians specify this one for exterior runs, wash-down areas, and damp mechanical rooms where plated steel washers would rust. For consistency, pair them with stainless channel nuts and stainless bolts so you are not mixing dissimilar plating in the same connection.
3) How many washers come in a jar of Metallics MSCW38SS?
Fifty washers per jar. The jar pack is what makes it practical for a van stock or a job box, since channel washers get consumed fast on any sizeable strut hanger run.
4) What does a channel washer actually do that a flat washer does not?
A channel washer is shaped to seat in the inturned lips of metal framing channel so the bolt load spreads across the strut flanges instead of digging into them. A plain flat washer sits on top of the lips and can roll or slip into the channel opening under load. If you are bolting a clamp, bracket, or pipe hanger to strut with a 3/8 inch bolt, the channel washer is the right part.
5) Do I still need channel nuts if I order the MSCW38SS washers?
Yes. The MSCW38SS is the washer only, 50 to a jar. A complete strut connection also needs a 3/8 inch channel nut (spring or plain) and a 3/8-16 bolt of the right length for your bracket thickness. Order those separately, in stainless if you want the whole assembly to match this washer's material.
6) How much does a jar of 50 Metallics 3/8 channel washers weigh for shipping or stocking?
The jar runs 7.75 lbs and measures 7.25 x 6.75 x 3.25 inches, so it sits easily on a shelf or in a gang box without taking a whole drawer.
