Metallics QTEKD13V – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Does the Metallics QTEKD13V self-drilling screw need a pilot hole in steel?
No pilot hole needed. The QTEKD13V is a self-drilling, self-tapping screw with a #3 drill point, so it cuts its own hole and forms its own thread in one pass. The #3 point is the heavier of the common small-diameter points and is meant for thicker gauge steel than a #2 point handles.
2) What size screw is the Metallics QTEKD13V, and how long is it?
It is a #10 diameter screw, 1 inch long, with a 5/16 inch head. That 1 inch length is a common pick for fastening strap, clips, and device brackets to steel studs or channel where you only need to pass through one layer plus the steel.
3) What driver bit do I need for a Quadrive head screw?
The QTEKD13V uses a Quadrive drive in a 5/16 inch hex head, so it can be run with a 5/16 inch hex driver or socket, and the Quadrive recess accepts a square drive bit if you would rather drive it that way. Most electricians run these with a 5/16 nut setter in an impact or screw gun.
4) Are these Metallics screws okay for indoor electrical work, or do I need stainless outside?
These are domestic steel with a zinc plating, which is a dry-interior finish. Zinc plated steel is fine for interior stud framing, strut, and panel work, but for exposed exterior or wet locations you want a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener instead.
5) Is the Metallics QTEKD13V made in the USA?
Yes. The QTEKD13V is domestically made steel, zinc plated, which matters if you are working a job with a Buy American or domestic-content requirement on fasteners.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the 10 x 1 inch hex head self-drilling screw?
QTEKD13V is the Metallics part number for the #10 x 1 inch Quadrive self-drilling and tapping screw with a 5/16 inch head and #3 drill point.
