Metallics JTXW381Z – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How thick a steel purlin or deck can a #3 drill point screw go through?
The JTXW381Z carries a #3 drill point, which is the mid-range point in the self-drilling series and is intended for heavier gauge steel than a #1 or #2. With a 1 in. overall length and 12 threads per inch, the usable grip is what is left after the drill point and the bonded washer, so it suits attaching sheet material to structural steel rather than deep stack-ups.
2) Do these screws seal against water, or do I need a separate washer?
No separate washer needed. A bonded sealing washer is already assembled on the screw, 0.720 to 0.780 in. outside diameter and 0.037 to 0.063 in. thick, which compresses under the hex head to make a weather-tight seal. That is what makes the Type BSD screw suitable for exterior panel, flashing, and roof-mounted work.
3) Are Metallics JTXW381Z screws acceptable on a Buy American or ARRA-funded job?
Both flags are marked compliant on the JTXW381Z: Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so if your specification requires a single named origin on the submittal, that is the detail to pin down with the mill cert.
4) What standards do these 3/8-12 self-drilling screws meet?
Dimensions are to ASME B18.6.3-2010 and the thread to SAE J78-2013, which is the self-drilling tapping screw standard. Steel is AISI 1016 to 1024 with a case hardness of Rockwell C32-40, and the finish is zinc. That set of callouts is usually enough to close out a fastener submittal for exterior sheet metal attachment.
5) Will zinc-plated self-drilling screws hold up outdoors on a coastal or wash-down building?
The JTXW381Z is zinc-plated carbon steel, AISI 1016 to 1024. Zinc plating is a general-purpose corrosion finish, fine for typical exterior and interior industrial work where the sealing washer keeps water out of the hole. For salt spray, continuous wetting, or a wash-down food plant, a stainless-capped or 300-series stainless self-drilling screw is the better call.
6) How many Metallics JTXW381Z screws come in a jar, and is there a minimum order?
They ship in a jar with a 50-each minimum order, so a purchase comes as a 50-count jar of the 3/8-12 x 1 in. screws rather than loose pieces. Jar weight is listed at 2.38 lbs.
