Metallics JTSS30SS – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size driver bit do I need for the Metallics JTSS30SS square drive screws?
A #2 square drive bit (driver size 2R). The recess measures 0.112 inch across the flats with a gaging depth of 0.060 to 0.075 inch, so a worn or undersized bit will cam out. Torsional strength is rated at 48 lb-in minimum, which is what you have to work with when driving into steel studs or strut.
2) Do I need to pre-drill for these #10 tapping screws, or will they start on their own?
The JTSS30SS has a gimlet point, which is a sharp pointed tip that starts in sheet metal and thin material without a pilot in most cases. It is a Type A tapping screw with 12 threads per inch, coarse spacing meant for thinner gauge sheet metal rather than thick plate. In heavier steel you will still want a pilot hole.
3) Can I use stainless tapping screws to fasten into aluminum or steel?
You can, but be aware of the galvanic risk. Metallics notes that fastening stainless steel parts to aluminum or steel can set up a galvanic couple and cause corrosion in some environments. For exterior, damp, or coastal work, isolate the joint or pick a fastener material matched to the base metal. In dry interior electrical work the 18-8 stainless is usually the right pick for corrosion resistance.
4) Are Metallics JTSS stainless tapping screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The JTSS30SS is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, this screw will not satisfy it.
5) How many Metallics JTSS30SS screws come in a jar, and can I buy less than that?
They ship in a jar of 100, and 100 is the order minimum. Metallics does offer other sizes and quantities of this pan head square drive tapping screw by request.
6) Will a #10 pan head screw sit flush, or does the head stand proud of the surface?
Pan head, so it stands proud. The head is 0.357 to 0.373 inch across and 0.122 to 0.133 inch high, which gives a broad bearing surface for holding down sheet metal, box covers, and strap. If you need the head below the surface, you want a flat or oval head screw instead and a countersunk hole.
7) What standards do these Metallics square drive tapping screws conform to?
Head dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013 and the threads follow ASME B18.6.4. One caveat from Metallics: dimensions for the #9 diameter are independent of ASME B18.6.4. This one is a #10 x 1-1/2 inch, so both standards apply.
8) What trades are these pan head square drive tapping screws intended for?
Metallics lists the field application as the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning industries. In practice that is mounting boxes, straps, hangers, duct, and enclosures to sheet metal. The square recess is popular on that work because a #2 bit stays seated overhead where a Phillips would cam out.
9) How much does a jar of 100 of these #10 x 1-1/2 in. stainless screws weigh?
The packed jar weighs 0.94 lbs and measures 3 in. by 3 in. by 2.7 in. Useful if you are kitting out a van or figuring a parcel of several jars.
