Metallics TEKD135M – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How thick a steel panel can a #3 point self-drilling screw go through?
The Metallics TEKD135M is rated for a panel thickness range of 0.110 to 0.175 in. That #3 drill point will bore and tap that range of steel without a pilot hole. Thinner sheet than 0.110 in. tends to let the point spin before it bites, and anything heavier than 0.175 in. needs a longer drill flute point.
2) Is this screw tough enough to drill into structural steel studs without snapping?
Case hardness is Rockwell C32-40 on AISI 1016-1024 steel, with a minimum torsional strength of 61 lb-in. Set your impact or screwgun clutch below that and the point drills rather than twists off. Keep the gun square to the work, since side load is what breaks drill points.
3) Do Metallics TEKD135M screws meet Buy American requirements for a federal job?
The TEKD135M is flagged Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant in Metallics' own product data, which is what a government or institutional spec writer is usually chasing. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your contract needs a documented single source of manufacture, request the mill paperwork with the order.
4) What driver size do I need for the Metallics TEKD135M hex head screws?
A 5/16 in. hex driver or nutsetter. The indented hex washer head measures 0.305 to 0.312 in. across the flats and 0.34 in. across the corners, with a head height of 0.105 to 0.12 in. Drive type is hex only, so there's no slot or Phillips backup.
5) Does the TEKD135M screw come with a built-in washer, or do I add one?
The washer is integral to the head, so nothing extra to order. Washer outside diameter runs 0.384 to 0.414 in. with a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 in., which spreads the clamp load over sheet metal and strut-mounted boxes instead of pulling the head through.
6) What size and thread count is the Metallics TEKD135M screw?
It's a #10 diameter by 1 in. long self-drilling tapping screw at 16 threads per inch, made to SAE J78 - 2013 for the thread form and ASME B18.6.3-2010 for head dimensions. That's the standard #10-16 Tek the trade specifies for sheet metal and light steel framing.
7) Are these zinc screws okay for outdoor or damp locations?
Material is steel with a zinc finish, which is a plated carbon steel screw meant for dry interior and protected work: electrical boxes, strut, duct, metal stud framing. For exterior, coastal, or wet locations, specify a stainless or coated exterior self-drilling screw instead.
8) How do these Metallics Tek screws ship, and is there a minimum order?
They ship boxed with an order minimum of 5000 pieces, a bulk contractor box rather than a small count card. The packed box weighs 37.5 lbs and measures 7.25 in. long by 6.25 in. by 6 in.
9) How long should a #10 self-drilling screw take to drill through sheet steel?
Metallics gives 2.5 seconds as the drill time through a 1 mm plate for this screw. If yours is sitting and smoking longer than that, the point is dulled or the gun RPM is too low. Minimum torque figures are the same whether you run the steel or the stainless version of this self-drill screw.
