Bad Threads for Fixture Mounting Screws
Would Not RecommendBought five of these. Could not get standard 8-32 mounting screws into the holes on any of them. Even tried a new package of 8-32 screws. Eventually, had to get out my tap and die set and re-thread the holes with a tap. Very frustrating, especially when already mounted in the ceiling.
