Metallics JTEKD15SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is this a Buy American or ARRA compliant fastener for a government job?
No. The JTEKD15SS is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your spec carries a domestic sourcing requirement, this screw will not satisfy it.
2) Will a #8 stainless self-drilling screw hold up outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
The JTEKD15SS is made from 410 stainless steel, which is the hardenable stainless used for self-drillers because it can be heat treated hard enough to cut its own hole. It resists corrosion far better than plain or zinc plated carbon steel in damp interiors, rooftop and exterior sheet metal work. Note 410 is a martensitic stainless, so it is less corrosion resistant than 300 series stainless in chloride heavy or coastal environments.
3) What driver do I need for the Metallics JTEKD15SS hex head screw?
A 1/4 inch hex driver or nutsetter. The head is an indented hex with hex drive, measuring 0.244 to 0.25 inches across the flats and 0.272 across the corners, so a standard 1/4 inch magnetic nutsetter in an impact or screw gun seats it. No bit tip is involved.
4) Does this screw have a built in washer, or do I need to add one?
The washer is integral to the head, so nothing extra to order. Washer outside diameter runs 0.322 to 0.348 inches with a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 inches. That bearing surface spreads load over sheet metal and helps keep thin panel from dimpling or pulling through.
5) Will this screw snap off when I drive it with an impact driver?
Torsional strength is 42 lb-in minimum with a case hardness of Rockwell C38-46. Per the product data, minimum torques are the same for stainless and carbon steel self-drill screws, and drill time is about 2.5 seconds through a 1 mm plate. Drive it at moderate speed with steady pressure; running a high torque impact past seating is what shears heads, not the screw rating.
6) How is the Metallics JTEKD15SS packaged and what is the minimum I can buy?
It ships in a jar of 100 pieces, and 100 is the order minimum. One jar weighs 0.78 lbs.
7) How far does the hex head stand off the surface?
Head height on the JTEKD15SS runs 0.096 to 0.11 inches, measured with the integral washer face as the bearing surface. Low enough that it will not interfere with most cover plates or adjacent equipment, but it is not a flush or countersunk head, so do not plan on a flat finished surface over it.
