Metallics JLWX2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size screw does the Metallics JLWX2 external tooth lock washer fit?
The JLWX2 is a #5 external tooth lock washer, so it is sized for #5 machine screws and bolts. It is the washer size, not a thread callout, so it works with any #5 screw thread pitch.
2) Are these Metallics lock washers plated for corrosion resistance?
Yes. The JLWX2 washers are zinc plated steel, which gives basic corrosion protection for indoor electrical work like panel and device box assembly. Zinc plating is not a marine or prolonged wet location coating, so for exposed outdoor or damp service pick a stainless washer instead.
3) Should I use an external tooth lock washer or an internal tooth type for grounding screws?
External tooth washers put the serrations on the outside diameter, so the teeth bite outside the screw head footprint and give a wider bearing area and more visible grip. That makes them the usual pick under small screw heads where an internal tooth washer's teeth would be entirely hidden under the head and contribute little bite. Internal tooth washers are preferred where appearance matters or the teeth must not mar the surrounding surface. The JLWX2 is the external tooth version in #5.
4) Are Metallics JLWX2 washers made to ANSI sizing?
The JLWX2 is listed to ANSI dimensional sizing, so the #5 bore and outside diameter follow the standard series and the washer interchanges with other ANSI-dimensioned #5 external tooth lock washers already in your stock.
5) How many washers come in a jar of Metallics JLWX2?
100 washers per jar, packaged in a screw-top jar rather than a bag, which holds up better in a van drawer or on a shop shelf than loose poly packs.
6) How much shelf or bin space does a jar of these #5 lock washers take up?
The jar measures 3 x 3 x 2.15 inches and weighs 0.05 lbs as listed, so it drops into a small parts bin or a van drawer divider without repacking.
7) Where is the Metallics JLWX2 lock washer manufactured?
Manufactured in China. That matters for buyers on federally funded work with domestic sourcing requirements, so check your project's provisions before specifying it.
