Metallics JTS40 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Are the Metallics JTS40 tapping screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government job?
No. The JTS40 is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant; country of origin is listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing clause, this screw will not satisfy it.
2) What is a Type A tapping screw like the Metallics JTS40 used for?
The JTS40 is a Type A tapping screw, meaning it forms its own thread in sheet metal and similar thin materials as it drives. The gimlet (sharp) point starts without a pilot in light-gauge stock, and the thread pitch is 19 threads per inch. Metallics lists it for the electrical, plumbing, and heating and air conditioning trades, so typical work is anchoring sheet metal boxes, straps, duct, and brackets.
3) What size Phillips driver do I need for the Metallics JTS40 screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess measures 0.163 to 0.176 inch in diameter at 0.100 inch deep, which is the standard #2 geometry, so a worn #1 or an oversized #3 will cam out. Minimum torsional strength is 30 lb-in, so back off impact drivers to a low setting.
4) How much of the Metallics JTS40 head sits above the surface?
The pan head stands 0.096 to 0.106 inch tall and spans 0.281 to 0.296 inch across. That is a low, broad bearing surface, good for clamping a sheet metal strap or plate flat, but it is not a flush-seating head, so don't plan on it countersinking into a finished surface.
5) Can I use the Metallics JTS40 zinc tapping screws outdoors or in a damp location?
These are carbon steel with a zinc plating, from AISI 1016 to 1024 stock. Zinc plating handles indoor and sheltered service, but it is not a stainless or hot-dip coating, so for sustained wet exposure, coastal air, or direct ground contact pick a stainless or hot-dip galvanized fastener instead.
6) Do the Metallics JTS40 screws meet a dimensional standard for spec submittals?
Head and drive dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013 and the threads follow ASME B18.6.4. Metallics notes that dimensions for #9 diameter screws are independent of ASME B18.6.4, which does not affect this #7 size.
7) Is a 1/2 inch long #7 screw long enough for my application?
The JTS40 is a #7 diameter at 1/2 inch overall length, so usable thread engagement past a single layer of sheet metal is short. It suits fastening a thin strap, cover, or box ear to light gauge stock. If you are stacking two layers plus a bracket, order a longer length in the JTS series rather than relying on a few threads.
8) How are the Metallics JTS40 screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They ship in a jar of 100, which is the order minimum, and the jar weighs 0.31 lbs. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request.
