Metallics JDSP154 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What driver do I need for the Metallics JDSP154 tapping screw?
The JDSP154 takes a #2 Phillips bit, and the hex head measures 0.244 to 0.25 inch across, so a 1/4 inch hex driver or socket also works. Having both drive options means you can start it with the Phillips and run it home with a nut setter when you need torque.
2) Will a #8 x 1 in. Type A sharp point tapping screw work in sheet metal without pre-drilling?
Type A tapping screws like the JDSP154 use a gimlet (sharp) point that pierces and taps its own thread in thin sheet metal, so light gauge work generally needs no pilot hole. The thread is a coarse 15 threads per inch, which is what gives it bite in thin stock. For thicker or harder material, drill a pilot sized to the thread, because the point only self-starts in light gauge.
3) Does the Metallics JDSP154 meet Buy American requirements for a government job?
The JDSP154 is flagged compliant for both ARRA and Buy American, with country of origin China. On federally funded work the compliance flag and the origin both get submitted, so check which standard your contract actually invokes before you spec it.
4) How many Metallics JDSP154 screws come in a jar, and can I buy fewer?
The JDSP154 ships in a jar with a 100 count minimum, so 100 pieces is the smallest order. The jar weighs 0.56 lbs. Other sizes and quantities are available by request.
5) Is the JDSP154 screw strong enough to drive without snapping heads?
It carries a 39 lb-in minimum torsional strength and is heat treated to Rockwell C28-38, made from AISI 1016 to 1024 steel. That is the normal range for a case hardened tapping screw. Snapped heads usually mean an impact driver set too high or a pilot hole that is undersized for the material, not the screw.
6) Are these zinc plated screws okay for outdoor or damp locations?
The JDSP154 is steel with a zinc finish, which is a plated coating meant for dry indoor use such as panel, enclosure, and box work. Zinc plating gives limited corrosion protection, so for wet, exterior, or corrosive locations use a stainless or hot dip galvanized fastener instead.
7) Does the JDSP154 have an integral washer under the head, and how much bearing surface does it give?
Yes, the head sits on an integral washer with a 0.322 to 0.348 inch outside diameter and 0.019 to 0.031 inch thickness. That extra flange spreads the clamp load so the screw does not pull through thin sheet or chew up a strap, and head height runs 0.096 to 0.11 inch for a low profile once seated.
8) What standards do these Metallics hex washer head tapping screws conform to?
Dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2013 and the thread form follows ASME B18.6.4. One exception: dimensions for the #9 diameter are independent of ASME B18.6.4.
