Metallics JTEKD5M – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to pre-drill for the Metallics JTEKD5M screws?
No pilot hole. It's a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw: the #2 drill point cuts the hole and the threads tap it in one pass. Drill time runs about 2.5 seconds through a 1 mm plate.
2) Is the washer on the JTEKD5M bonded to the head or a loose washer?
It's an integral washer under the indented hex head, 0.384 to 0.414 inch outside diameter and 0.019 to 0.031 inch thick. The wider bearing surface spreads load on thin sheet and helps seat flat on slotted strut or enclosure panels, so you don't need to add a separate washer.
3) Will a #10 self-drilling screw hold up to impact driving without snapping the head off?
Minimum torsional strength on this #10 screw is 61 lb-in, with case hardness at Rockwell C32-40 over an AISI 1016-1024 steel core. Threads are made to SAE J78-2013 and head dimensions to ASME B18.6.3-2010. Drive it to seat, not past it, since over-torquing a #10 past 61 lb-in is what shears heads.
4) What is the thread pitch on the Metallics JTEKD5M, and will it thread into an existing 10-16 hole?
16 threads per inch, UNC thread form, in a #10 diameter by 1/2 inch length. That makes it a standard 10-16 self-drill, so it will re-thread an existing hole tapped by another 10-16 self-drilling screw. It will not match a 10-24 or 10-32 machine screw hole.
5) Are these Metallics screws suitable for outdoor or damp locations?
The JTEKD5M is zinc plated carbon steel. Zinc plating is fine for dry interior electrical work, enclosures and conduit support indoors, but it is not a marine or sustained-wet finish. For exterior or washdown areas, step up to a stainless self-drilling screw.
6) Do the Metallics JTEKD5M screws meet Buy American requirements for a government job?
Metallics lists the JTEKD5M as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant. Country of origin is recorded as multiple, so if your contract requires a single documented origin per lot, ask for lot documentation with the order.
7) Is 1/2 inch long enough for a #10 self-drilling screw, or do I need a longer one?
At 1/2 inch overall, the JTEKD5M suits thin stacked sheet metal: panel capacity tops out at 0.110 inch, so with the drill point and washer consuming part of the length it is sized for single or light double layers. If you are fastening through a thicker assembly or a spacer, move to a longer #10 self-drill.
8) How are these self-drilling screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 1,000 pieces, which is the order minimum. Jar weight is listed at 5 lbs. That is a stocking quantity for a van or shop bin rather than a small job pack.
