Metallics TEK7PB – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to pre-drill a pilot hole for these screws?
No. The TEK7PB is a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw: the #2 drill point cuts its own hole and the 16 TPI thread taps it in the same pass, within the 0.035 to 0.110 in. panel range. One pass, no pilot, no separate tap.
2) Is the TEK7PB a #10 screw, and what thread pitch does it have?
It is a 10 x 1 in. Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw with 16 threads per inch. Thread conformance is to SAE J78 - 2013 and head dimensions to ASME B18.6.3-2010. Note the manufacturer's own caveat: SAE J78 does not cover #7 diameter drill screws.
3) What driver bit do I need for these Metallics pan head Phillips tek screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess diameter is 0.192 in. with a gaging depth of 0.089 to 0.113 in., so a worn or undersized bit will cam out before the point finishes drilling. Keep fresh #2 bits in the gun on a long run.
4) Will the pan head sit low enough under a strap or clamp without fouling it?
Pan head, 0.122 to 0.133 in. high with a head width of 0.357 to 0.373 in. That is a low, broad bearing surface, so it seats flat against a strut strap, conduit clamp, or box ear without biting in. It does not countersink, so if you need a flush surface use a flat or wafer head instead.
5) Are these Metallics tek screws Buy American and ARRA compliant for a public works job?
Both the ARRA and Buy American compliance flags on the TEK7PB read C (compliant). Country of origin is listed as MUL, meaning the screws are sourced from multiple countries, so get the specific lot documented if your contract requires a domestic certificate.
6) Will the TEK7PB snap off when I drive it into heavier gauge steel?
Torsional strength is rated at 61 lb-in minimum with case hardness of Rockwell C32-40. That is enough to drill and tap within its rated 0.035 to 0.110 in. panel range, but over-torquing a clutchless drill after the head seats is the usual cause of a sheared screw. Set the clutch or use a depth-sensitive screwgun.
7) Can I use these zinc plated tek screws outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
The TEK7PB is steel with a zinc finish, which is intended for dry interior electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work. Zinc plating gives limited corrosion protection only, so for exterior, roof, or wet locations move to a stainless or coated self-drilling screw instead.
8) How do these screws come packaged and what is the smallest quantity I can buy?
They ship in a jar of 250, which is also the order minimum. The jar weighs 1.88 lbs and measures 3 x 3.6 x 3 inches, so it drops into a van bin or gang box tray without repacking.
9) Is a 1 inch length long enough for mounting through strut or doubled sheet metal?
Fastener length is 1 inch overall. Part of that is consumed by the drill point and the material stack, so you want enough thread past the back face to engage. Through two layers at the top of the 0.110 in. rating you still have plenty; through a thick strut channel or a stacked assembly, step up in length.
