Metallics TEKD65M – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How thick a steel panel can the Metallics TEKD65M #10 self-drilling screw drill through?
The TEKD65M is rated for panel thicknesses of 0.035 to 0.110 inch, which covers typical light-gauge steel studs, strut, and sheet metal. The #2 drill point does the drilling and the thread taps in one pass, so no pilot hole is needed within that range. Heavier structural steel is outside what this screw will drill.
2) Is the Metallics TEKD65M screw sold individually or only by the box?
It ships as a box with a 5,000 piece order minimum, so it is a bulk-buy item rather than a count-out-a-handful purchase. The shipping box is listed at 29.78 lbs. For crews doing repeat light-gauge steel work it standardizes one fastener across jobs; for a one-off repair the quantity is well past what you need.
3) Does the Metallics TEKD65M screw qualify for Buy American or ARRA projects?
Metallics lists the TEKD65M as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, which is what a government, school district, or federally funded job needs on the submittal. Country of origin is recorded as multiple.
4) Does this Metallics screw come with a washer already on it, and how big is it?
Yes, the washer is integral to the head. Outside diameter is 0.384 to 0.414 inch with a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 inch, which gives you more bearing surface than a plain hex head when fastening thin sheet or strap to light-gauge steel. No separate washer needs to be ordered.
5) Will a #10 x 3/4 in. zinc self-drilling screw hold up outdoors?
The TEKD65M is carbon steel with a zinc finish, which is an indoor and protected-application coating. It is a good match for electrical work inside a building, strut, boxes, and light-gauge framing. For sustained wet or exterior exposure, step up to a stainless or a heavier coated drill screw instead.
6) What thread pitch and standards does the Metallics TEKD65M meet?
16 threads per inch on a #10 diameter, 3/4 inch long screw. Threads follow SAE J78-2013, head dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2010, and the steel is AISI 1016-1024 case hardened to Rockwell C32-40. That is the data a spec writer or submittal reviewer is usually after on a drill screw.
7) How much driving torque will this self-drilling screw take before it snaps?
Minimum torsional strength is 61 lb-in. That is the number to watch if you are driving with a high-torque impact rather than a clutch screwgun, since over-driving past that point shears the screw rather than seating it. Expect roughly 2.5 seconds of drill time through a 1 mm plate.
