Metallics JTEK32P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Do I need to pre-drill for the Metallics JTEK32P screws?
No. The JTEK32P is a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw, so the drill point cuts its own hole and the 14 threads per inch tap it in one pass. Run it with a screw gun at a steady speed in the 0.110 to 0.210 in. panel thickness range it is rated for.
2) What size Phillips bit drives these #12 x 2 in. pan head screws?
A #3 Phillips bit. The recess diameter is 0.252 in. with a gaging depth of 0.098 to 0.124 in., so a #2 bit will cam out and chew the recess under the torque these take. Use a #3 and keep it seated.
3) How much torque can a #12 self-drilling screw take before it snaps?
92 lb-in minimum torsional strength on the JTEK32P, with a case hardness of Rockwell C32-40. That is the number to watch if you are driving with an impact driver into heavy gauge, since the drill point has to cut through up to 0.210 in. of steel before the threads engage. Clutch the gun rather than relying on feel.
4) Are these zinc screws OK for outdoor or damp locations?
The JTEK32P is steel with a zinc finish, which is a coating for indoor and dry-location service. For exterior strut, rooftop equipment, wash-down areas or anywhere with chloride exposure, go to a stainless or a coated exterior-rated self-driller instead; plain zinc will bloom and then rust.
5) What standards do these Metallics self-drilling screws conform to?
Head and recess dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2010 and the thread and drill point follow SAE J78-2013. That matters on spec jobs where the submittal calls out a J78 drill screw. Note that SAE J78 carries no specification for #7 diameter drill screws, so a #7 callout cannot be met under that standard.
6) Is 2 inches of length too long for fastening a box or strap to sheet steel?
Probably, yes. The JTEK32P runs 2 in. long with 14 threads per inch, so most of the shank sticks out the back of a thin panel; it is meant for stacking through heavier sections or shimmed assemblies within the 0.110 to 0.210 in. panel range. For a strap on a single sheet, a shorter #12 drill screw gets full thread engagement without the protruding tail.
7) How does the Metallics JTEK32P come packaged and what is the minimum order?
These ship in a jar of 100, and 100 count is the order minimum. Package weight is listed at 1.6 lbs. Metallics does offer other diameters, lengths and quantities in the JTEK line by request if 100 of the 2 in. is not the size you need.
8) Can I use these screws on a federally funded or Buy American job?
Metallics lists the JTEK32P as ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, with country of origin China. On a project with a domestic-content clause, submit those compliance designations to the specifier before you buy, because the applicable rule varies by funding source.
