Nsi Industries sp279p Wall Plate Screw 6-32 X 1 in Phillips White

Product Description

The NSI INDUSTRIES sp279p is a 6-32 x 1 inch oval head Phillips wall plate screw supplied in a 100-piece pack. This fastener is designed to secure electrical wall plates, switch plates, and outlet covers to standard electrical boxes. The 6-32 thread size is the industry-standard thread for wall plate attachment in residential and commercial wiring applications. The white finish matches common white wall plates, providing a clean, uniform appearance at the finished installation. Electricians and finish-out crews rely on fasteners like this to complete outlet and switch rough-ins before final inspection.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial electrical installations wherever wall plates need to be mounted to device boxes or mud rings. Typical applications include duplex outlets, toggle switches, decorator-style devices, and low-voltage wall plates. The 1 inch length accommodates standard plate thickness with enough engagement to seat firmly without bottoming out in shallow boxes. Bulk 100-piece packaging makes this a practical stock item for electrical contractors and service techs who cycle through wall plate fasteners regularly.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians or qualified finish personnel during the trim-out phase of electrical work. De-energize the circuit at the breaker before handling devices or wall plates. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver or a low-torque powered driver to avoid cracking the wall plate — hand-snug is typically sufficient. NEC guidelines govern the proper installation and cover requirements for electrical devices.
