Metallics JTEKD2SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What metal thickness will the Metallics JTEKD2SS self-drilling screw drill through?
The JTEKD2SS is rated for panel thicknesses of 0.035 to 0.100 inch, which covers typical sheet metal studs, strut, enclosure walls and light gauge sheet. Its #2 drill point does the drilling and tapping in one pass, so no pilot hole is needed within that range. Heavier plate is outside the range for this point size.
2) Is a #8 x 3/4 in. 410 stainless self-drilling screw OK for outdoor or damp locations?
410 stainless is the material here, which is a hardenable stainless that gives you corrosion resistance while still being hard enough to drill its own hole (Rockwell C38-46). That combination is why 410 is used for self-drillers in exterior and wash-down areas instead of 300 series, which is too soft to drill unhardened.
3) Will the Metallics JTEKD2SS meet a Buy American or ARRA spec on a public job?
It is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA, which is what a government, school or healthcare procurement file usually needs on fasteners. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
4) What driver do I need for the Metallics JTEKD2SS screw?
A 1/4 inch hex driver or socket. The head is an indented hex washer head measuring 0.244 to 0.250 inch across the flats and 0.272 across the corners, so a standard 1/4 inch magnetic nut setter in a screw gun drives it. There is no Phillips or square recess on it.
5) Does this screw have a built-in washer, or do I add one?
The washer is integral to the head, so nothing extra to stock. The flange runs 0.322 to 0.348 inch outside diameter and 0.019 to 0.031 inch thick, which spreads the bearing load on sheet metal and gives you more surface against a strap or bracket than a plain hex head would.
6) How many Metallics JTEKD2SS screws come in a jar, and can I buy fewer?
These ship in a jar with a minimum of 100 count, so 100 is the smallest quantity you can order. Metallics notes other sizes and quantities are available by request.
7) What standards does this #8-18 self-drilling screw conform to?
Threads are UNC at 18 threads per inch, built to SAE J78-2013, and the head dimensions follow ASME B18.6.3-2010. Minimum torsional strength is 42 lb-in. Note that SAE J78 does not cover #7 diameter drill screws, so if your spec calls out a #7 you are looking at a non-standard size.
8) Do stainless self-drillers drive slower than plain steel ones?
No. Metallics lists the same minimum torques for its stainless and steel self-drill screws, with a drill time of 2.5 seconds through a 1 mm thick plate. You are not giving up drive speed by going to 410 stainless for corrosion resistance.
