Metallics JDS158V – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a Type A tapping screw used for, and is the Metallics JDS158V right for sheet metal?
The Metallics JDS158V is a Type A tapping screw, meaning it has a sharp gimlet point and a coarse 12 threads-per-inch thread that forms its own thread in thin sheet metal as it drives. That makes it the screw for light-gauge steel work like mounting straps, boxes, and plates. It is not a machine screw, so it needs no nut or pre-tapped hole, just a pilot hole in the sheet.
2) Do these screws meet a published standard for a spec'd job?
Yes. The JDS158V is built to ASME B18.6.3-2010 for dimensions and ASME B18.6.4 for the tapping thread, with material per AISI 1016-1024 and a case hardness of Rockwell C28-38. Minimum torsional strength is 48 lb-in. One caveat the manufacturer notes: dimensions for the #9 diameter in this family fall outside ASME B18.6.4.
3) How many screws come in the JDS158V pack and how is it packaged?
The JDS158V ships 500 count in a jar, and 500 is the order minimum. If you need a different size or a different quantity of this indented hex head slotted tapping screw, Metallics builds other sizes and counts to request.
4) Will these Metallics tapping screws rust in a damp mechanical room or outdoors?
The JDS158V is carbon steel with a zinc finish, which handles indoor and damp interior conditions like mechanical rooms, plenums, and panel work. Zinc plating is not a marine or sustained-wet coating, so for direct exterior exposure or washdown areas step up to a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener instead.
5) Are Metallics JDS158V tapping screws acceptable on a federally funded or Buy American job?
Metallics lists the JDS158V as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is recorded as multiple, so if your contract requires a single documented origin, request that confirmation against the lot you are buying.
6) Can I use a self-drilling screw instead of this sharp point tapping screw?
They are not the same thing. The JDS158V has a gimlet point, which pierces and taps thin sheet but expects a pilot hole in heavier gauge. A self-drilling point cuts its own hole and is the better choice in thicker steel or where you cannot pre-drill. For light-gauge sheet metal, the Type A sharp point drives faster and strips less.
7) Is there an integral washer under the head on the JDS158V, and how much does it cover?
Yes, the indented hex head carries a washer face with an outside diameter of 0.384 to 0.414 inch and a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 inch. That bearing surface spreads load on thin sheet and covers a slightly oversized hole, which is why this head style gets used for box and strap mounting.
8) How much will a jar of 500 of these screws weigh for shipping or a job cart?
A 500 count jar of the JDS158V weighs 3.05 lbs, with the container measuring 7.25 in by 4.5 in by 4.5 in. Light enough to toss several jars in a van stock bin.
