Metallics JTSS5 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What driver bit do I need for the Metallics JTSS5 square drive tapping screws?
A #1 square (Robertson) bit. The JTSS5 uses a square recess with a driver size of 1R, and the recess measures 0.091 across the flats with a gaging depth of 0.050 to 0.065 inch. Keep a fresh #1 bit in the gun, since a worn tip in a shallow recess is what causes cam-out on these.
2) Is a #6 x 1-1/2 in. Type A tapping screw right for sheet metal, or do I need a self-drilling screw?
The JTSS5 is a Type A tapping screw with a gimlet point, so it taps its own thread in a pre-punched or pre-drilled hole in thin sheet metal, and it will also bite wood and soft materials. It does not drill its own hole. If you are fastening into heavier gauge steel with no pilot, use a self-drilling (Type TEK) screw instead.
3) Do the Metallics JTSS5 screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. The JTSS5 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant; country of origin is listed as multiple. If your project carries a domestic sourcing clause, this part will not satisfy it.
4) How much torque will a #6 Metallics tapping screw take before it snaps?
Rated at 24 lb-in minimum torsional strength, with case hardness at Rockwell C28-38 and steel to AISI 1016-1024. That is a #6 screw, so set the clutch on your driver low. Running it out on an impact gun is the usual way these twist off.
5) What is the thread pitch and head size on the Metallics JTSS5 #6 pan head screw?
18 threads per inch on a #6 diameter, 1-1/2 inch long shank. The pan head runs 0.256 to 0.270 inch across and 0.087 to 0.097 inch high, so it sits nearly flush on a strap or box ear without needing a countersink, and it will clear most standard knockout and mounting slots.
6) Will the Metallics JTSS5 screws hold up in a damp mechanical room or outdoors?
Steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating handles interior and protected locations, which is where these are meant to work: electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning applications. For direct exposure to weather, salt air, or standing moisture, go to stainless.
7) How are the Metallics JTSS5 tapping screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They come in a jar of 100, and 100 is the order minimum. Jar weight is 0.54 lbs. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
8) What dimensional standard do these pan head square drive tapping screws conform to?
Head and recess dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013, and the thread form follows ASME B18.6.4. That means the #6 head and 18-TPI thread interchange with any other standards-conforming #6 Type A screw on a submittal.
