Metallics JTEK12P – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to pre-drill before running these Metallics #6 pan head screws into steel studs or an enclosure?
No pilot hole needed. It is a Type BSD drill point screw with a #2 drill point, meaning the tip cuts the hole and the threads tap it in one pass, as long as the metal falls within the 0.035 to 0.090 inch panel range.
2) What driver bit do I need for the JTEK12P screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess is a Phillips drive with a 0.159 inch recess diameter and a gaging depth of 0.055 to 0.080 inch, so a worn or oversized bit will cam out and strip the head. Torsional strength is 24 lb-in minimum, which is the ceiling to keep in mind if you are driving with a high-torque impact driver.
3) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JTEK12P and can I buy fewer?
They ship in a jar with a 100 piece order minimum, so the jar is the smallest buy. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
4) Will a #6 x 1 inch pan head screw sit flush, or does the head stand above the surface?
Pan head screws seat on top of the material, not flush. The head measures 0.256 to 0.270 inch across and 0.087 to 0.097 inch high, so expect just under a tenth of an inch of head standing proud. If you need the fastener below the surface, you want a flat or trim head instead.
5) Are zinc plated steel drill screws okay for outdoor or damp locations?
These are zinc plated carbon steel, hardened to Rockwell C32-40. Zinc plating is a mild indoor corrosion coating. For wet exterior work, damp mechanical rooms, or coastal exposure, specify a stainless self-drilling screw instead.
6) Do Metallics JTEK12P screws meet Buy American or ARRA requirements for a government job?
No. They are not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, these will not qualify.
7) What thread pitch and standard are these Metallics drill screws built to?
20 threads per inch on a #6 diameter, 1 inch long, built to SAE J78 - 2013 for the thread and ASME B18.6.3-2010 for head dimensions. That is the common spec for electrical and mechanical drill screws, so they interchange with other J78 #6-20 drill screws.
8) What trades actually use the JTEK12P screw?
It is aimed at electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work: mounting boxes, straps, hangers, and plates to sheet metal and light gauge steel without pre-drilling. Typical jobs are duct and enclosure attachment for HVAC and MRO crews.
