Metallics JTSF24 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Metallics JTSF24 a sheet metal screw or a wood screw?
The JTSF24 is a Type A tapping screw, which is a sheet metal screw with a gimlet point and a coarse 15 threads per inch. The gimlet point lets it start in thin sheet metal, and the same point and coarse pitch work in wood and other soft materials. It is not a machine screw and it needs no nut.
2) Are Metallics JTSF24 screws Buy American or ARRA compliant for a government project?
No. The JTSF24 flat head tapping screw is not Buy American compliant and not ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as multiple. If your contract carries a domestic sourcing requirement, this part will not satisfy it.
3) What size Phillips bit drives the Metallics JTSF24 screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The recess is 0.182 in. in diameter and 0.11 in. deep, so a #1 bit will cam out and a #3 will not seat. Keep a fresh #2 in the driver if you are running a jar of 100.
4) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JTSF24?
They ship in a jar with an order minimum of 100 pieces, and the jar weighs 0.832 lbs. That is the standard purchase quantity for this #8 x 2 in. flat head tapping screw.
5) Can these tapping screws be driven with an impact driver without snapping the heads off?
The JTSF24 carries a minimum torsional strength of 39 lb-in and a case hardness of Rockwell C28-38. That is the ASME-referenced minimum for a #8 Type A screw, so it will take normal driver torque, but an impact driver set to full output will exceed 39 lb-in once the head bottoms out. Use a clutch or torque setting and stop when the head seats.
6) Are Metallics JTSF24 zinc screws suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
These are AISI 1016-1024 carbon steel with a zinc finish. Zinc plating is a dry-location and indoor corrosion coating, so it is fine for interior electrical, plumbing, and HVAC work but will eventually rust in standing water or direct weather exposure. For exterior or damp locations choose stainless or a hot-dip galvanized fastener.
7) Do these screws meet the ASME standard for tapping screws on a spec'd job?
Yes. The JTSF24 is built to ASME B18.6.4-1998 for dimensions and ASME B18.6.4 for threads, with a gaging diameter of 0.267 in. and protrusion 0.023 to 0.039 in. above the gage. One caveat from the manufacturer: dimensions for #9 diameter screws in this family fall outside ASME B18.6.4. The #8 size here is covered.
