Metallics JTS85 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a Type A tapping screw and what materials will the Metallics JTS85 screw thread into?
The Metallics JTS85 is a Type A tapping screw with a gimlet (sharp) point, so it drills and forms its own thread as it drives. Type A threading is the coarse style meant for thin sheet metal, sheet steel enclosures, resilient plastics and wood-like materials where the screw can cut and hold in one pass. Thread pitch is 18 threads per inch and the thread conforms to ASME B18.6.4. For thick stock or hard steel, a self-drilling or machine screw into a tapped hole is the better choice.
2) Do the Metallics JTS85 screws meet Buy American requirements for a government or institutional job?
Metallics lists the JTS85 as both ARRA compliant and Buy American compliant, which is what a public-agency, school or federally funded spec typically asks for on fasteners. Country of origin is listed as multiple, so confirm the origin marking on the jar you receive if your submittal requires a single named country.
3) Is the Metallics JTS85 zinc screw suitable for outdoor or damp locations?
The JTS85 is steel with a zinc finish, which is a general-purpose indoor and dry-location coating. It resists handling corrosion and incidental moisture, but zinc-plated steel is not a marine or sustained-wet-location fastener. For exterior, coastal or washdown work, specify stainless steel instead.
4) What dimensional standard do these #6 pan head tapping screws conform to?
Head and body dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013, with threads to ASME B18.6.4. That means the head diameter, head height and slot geometry are interchangeable with any other B18.6.3 #6 pan head slotted screw, so it drops into an existing hardware schedule without rework. Note that Metallics states dimensions for #9 diameter screws in the series fall outside ASME B18.6.4.
5) Is 1-3/4 inches too long for mounting straps or boxes to a stud?
At a #6 diameter by 1-3/4 in. long, the JTS85 is the long end of the range for this style. It is the right pick when you need to pass through furring, drywall or a spacer and still get a solid bite into wood framing. For fastening sheet metal to sheet metal, or anywhere the point would protrude into a wiring space, go shorter.
6) How are the Metallics JTS85 tapping screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar, with a 100-count minimum order. Jar packaging is the practical format for a service van or a shop bin where you're pulling a handful at a time.
