Metallics JTSF15 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a Type A tapping screw and where would I use the Metallics JTSF15 #6 x 1 inch screw?
Type A is a sheet metal tapping screw with a gimlet (pointed) tip that cuts its own thread as it drives, so it goes into a pilot hole in thin sheet metal without a nut or a tapped hole. Metallics lists the JTSF15 for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades, which is the typical use: hanging boxes, straps, plates and light sheet metal brackets. Threads are 18 per inch to ASME B18.6.4.
2) Do Metallics JTSF15 screws meet a dimensional standard for a government or institutional spec?
Dimensions are to ASME B18.6.4-1998 and threads to ASME B18.6.4, so they'll satisfy a submittal calling out that standard. Note for federally funded work: Metallics lists the JTSF15 as not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple.
3) What size Phillips driver bit do I need for Metallics JTSF15 screws?
A #2 Phillips. The recess is 0.168 inch in diameter, 0.094 inch deep, with a 0.029 inch slot width, which is standard #2 geometry for a #6 screw. Torsional strength is 24 lb-in minimum, so back off the clutch on an impact driver to avoid snapping heads.
4) How are the Metallics JTSF15 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 about 0.35 lbs. Other sizes and quantities can be had by request.
5) Are the Metallics JTSF15 screws hard enough to cut their own threads in sheet metal?
Case hardness is Rockwell C28-38 on AISI 1016-1024 steel, which is the standard range for a self-tapping sheet metal screw. That lets the gimlet point form threads in light gauge steel without a tapped hole, while the core stays ductile enough to resist head shear at the 24 lb-in minimum torsional rating.
6) Can I use these zinc plated screws outdoors or in a damp location?
The JTSF15 is zinc plated carbon steel, which is a mild indoor corrosion coating. It's fine for dry interior electrical and mechanical work, but for exterior, wet or corrosive locations you want stainless rather than zinc plated steel.
7) Is a 1 inch #6 tapping screw long enough for my application?
The JTSF15 is a #6 diameter, 1 inch long screw, threaded the full way to the gimlet point. That covers thin sheet metal plus a modest standoff or substrate behind it. If you're fastening through something thick enough that less than about three threads engage the metal, step up in length instead; Metallics offers other sizes in the JTSF series on request.
