Metallics TEKDHH195M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to pre-drill before driving these #10 hex head Tek screws into steel?
No pre-drilling. It is a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw, so the drill point cuts its own hole and the 16 threads-per-inch thread taps it in one pass through steel in the 0.110 to 0.175 inch range.
2) Do the Metallics TEKDHH195M screws meet Buy American requirements for a federal job?
They are flagged Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your contract requires a single documented origin, get the origin certified for the specific lot you receive.
3) What driver size fits the 5/16 high hat hex head on the Metallics TEKDHH195M?
Hex drive, with a head width of 0.305 to 0.312 inch, so a 5/16 hex driver or magnetic nutsetter seats it. Head height runs 0.125 to 0.130 inch. The high hat profile gives the socket deeper engagement, which is what keeps the driver from slipping off under a screw gun.
4) Does this self-drilling screw have a built-in washer, or do I add one?
The washer is integral to the head. It is a hex "High Hat" Washer head with a washer outside diameter of 0.364 to 0.414 inch, so nothing separate is needed for bearing surface on sheet metal or strut.
5) How many Metallics TEKDHH195M screws come in a box?
They ship as a box of 5,000, which is the order minimum on the TEKDHH195M. That quantity weighs 52.5 lbs, worth knowing before it lands on a jobsite or a shelf.
6) Will these screws snap when driven with an impact or high-torque screw gun?
Torsional strength is 61 lb-in minimum with a case hardness of Rockwell C32-40, made from AISI 1016-1024 steel to SAE J78-2013. That is the standard drill-screw spec band. Over-driving past seat is still what breaks heads, so set the clutch rather than relying on feel.
7) Are zinc-plated Tek screws like these OK for outdoor or wet locations?
Material is steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating is a dry-location and protected-location coating, it is not a marine or sustained-wet finish. For exterior exposure, roof work, or washdown areas, specify a stainless or coated exterior-rated drill screw instead.
8) Is a 1-1/2 inch #10 drill screw too long for attaching conduit straps to steel decking?
At #10 diameter and 1-1/2 inch length, most of that shank is thread meant to pass through a bracket and still get full engagement in steel up to 0.175 inch. For thin strap-to-stud work where backside protrusion is a problem, a shorter #10 drill screw in the same high hat hex series is the better call. Where you need the length to reach through insulation, spacers, or stacked brackets, this is the one.
