Review: Perfect - Bolt was perfect for my pool
Review: Could be a critical item. - I had to replace a 24 year old blown incandescent bulb in my pool. When I removed the pilot screw it was in dreadful shape. It was covered in some sort of corrosion suggesting that it was something other than stainless steel...galvanized perhaps. I knew I needed to change it and this brass OEM version showed up so for me, it was a no brainer. I'm no electrician but I feel that having this clean, new, brass screw through the frame of the lamp into the niche in the pool has some required grounding or bonding implications that I am not willing to skimp on. My pool's deep end where the light is has no decking. It is landscaped with cactus right up to the curb so there was no way I could lie down in that mess and reach in to the pool to do this job. It had to be done in the water and having the included rubber captive washer to keep the screw in place while maneuvering things around was a great help. This is a simple, easy to install, peace-of-mind item that you really shouldn't pass on. Enjoy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fits and doesn't rust
*by E***D on November 2, 2024*

When I removed the spa light, I discovered that the head was stripped. It was difficult to remove the screw. I replaced it with one I had laying around that had the same threads, but wasn't brass or stainless. Within days I had rust running down from screw, and within a couple of weeks, the screw had completely dissolved. I bought this screw to replace it, and it continues to hold without degrading. Live and learn. Buy this screw.
