Metallics JDSP81 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is a Type A tapping screw right for sheet metal and wood, or do I need a self-drilling screw?
The JDSP81 is a Type A tapping screw with a gimlet (sharp) point and 12 threads per inch. The sharp point starts in thin sheet metal, wood, and plastic without a pilot, cutting its own thread as it goes. It does not drill, so it is not the screw for heavy steel or structural plate, where a self-drilling point is the right call. Spaced coarse threads like these grip soft material better than a machine-thread screw would.
2) Can these zinc plated Metallics screws be used outdoors?
The JDSP81 is steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating handles indoor and dry or sheltered conditions and resists general corrosion, but it is not a marine or sustained-wet finish. For exposed exterior or coastal work, step up to a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener.
3) Do the Metallics JDSP81 hex head screws come with a built-in washer?
Yes, the head is a hex washer head. The integral washer runs 0.384 to 0.414 inch outside diameter with a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 inch, and head height is 0.105 to 0.12 inch. That flange spreads the load so you do not need a separate washer when fastening through sheet metal or thin material.
4) Do these Metallics tapping screws meet Buy American requirements for a federal or institutional job?
The JDSP81 is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American in Metallics' data, though country of origin is listed as China. On federally funded work, verify which standard your contract invokes, since the compliance flag and the origin need to be reconciled by your specifier.
5) How are the Metallics JDSP81 screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar, with a minimum order of 100 count. Pack weight is 1.81 lbs.
6) What standards do the #10 x 3 in. Metallics tapping screws conform to?
Dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013 and the thread form follows ASME B18.6.4. Worth noting for anyone cross-checking a submittal: Metallics states that dimensions for the #9 diameter screws in this series fall outside ASME B18.6.4, but the #10 x 3 in. JDSP81 is a standard size.
