Metallics TSF24M – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a Type A tapping screw, and is the Metallics TSF24M right for sheet metal or for wood?
The Metallics TSF24M is a Type A tapping screw with a gimlet point, meaning it has a sharp pointed tip and a coarse 15 threads per inch. That coarse-thread, pointed combination is what Type A is built for: thin sheet metal, and it also drives readily into wood and other soft materials. If you are fastening into thicker steel sheet or need a blunt-point thread-cutting screw, Type A is the wrong choice.
2) Will the TSF24M meet a spec that calls for ASME B18.6.4 tapping screws?
Yes. Both the dimensions and the threads are built to ASME B18.6.4, with the dimensional callout being the 1998 revision. Steel is AISI 1016 to 1024, case hardness is Rockwell C28-38, and minimum torsional strength is 39 lb-in. One caveat the manufacturer notes: dimensions for #9 diameter screws fall outside ASME B18.6.4.
3) Are these Metallics tapping screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a federal job?
No. The TSF24M is not Buy American compliant and is not ARRA compliant, and country of origin is listed as multiple. If your project carries a domestic sourcing requirement, this screw will not satisfy it.
4) How many Metallics TSF24M screws come in a box?
They ship in boxes of 1,000, which is also the order minimum. If you only need a handful for a service call, this is a bulk box, not a small pack.
5) Can I use these zinc-plated tapping screws outdoors or in a damp location?
The TSF24M is carbon steel with a zinc plating. Zinc gives moderate corrosion resistance for dry interior work and protected locations, but it is not a stainless or hot-dip coating, so for direct weather exposure, wet areas, or coastal air you want a stainless or hot-dip galvanized fastener instead.
6) Can I get the Metallics JTSF flat head tapping screws in a different length or diameter than #8 x 2 in.?
The JTSF series runs beyond the #8 x 2 in. TSF24M. Other diameters, lengths, and pack quantities in the same flat head Phillips Type A configuration are available by request, so if your spec calls for a shorter screw or a different gauge, ask for it by size rather than substituting a different head style.
