Metallics JTEKD16V – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What metal thickness will the Metallics JTEKD16V #8 self-drilling screw drill through?
The #2 drill point on the JTEKD16V is rated for panel thickness of 0.035 to 0.100 inch, so it handles light to medium gauge steel such as stud track, strut backing, and sheet metal enclosures. Thicker plate needs a larger drill point size; below 0.035 inch the point can push through before the threads engage.
2) Do I need to pre-drill or tap before running these #8 x 5/8 hex washer head screws?
No. The JTEKD16V is a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw, so the drill point cuts its own hole and the 18 threads per inch UNC thread forms the mating thread in one pass. One driver, no pilot hole, no tap.
3) Do these Metallics self-drilling screws meet Buy American requirements for a government job?
Yes. The JTEKD16V is flagged compliant for both Buy American and ARRA, which is what procurement needs for federally funded work. Country of origin is listed as multiple.
4) What driver bit fits the 1/4 inch indented hex head on the Metallics JTEKD16V?
A 1/4 inch hex driver or magnetic nutsetter. The indented hex head measures 0.244 to 0.25 inch across the flats and 0.272 across corners, with a head height of 0.096 to 0.11 inch, so a standard 1/4 inch nutsetter seats on it cleanly in a drill or impact driver.
5) Is the washer on these screws built into the head or a separate loose washer?
It is an integral washer head, not a loose part to handle on the ladder. The flange runs 0.322 to 0.348 inch outside diameter with a thickness of 0.019 to 0.031 inch, which spreads the clamp load over sheet metal and oversized or slotted holes in strut and bracketry.
6) Will zinc plated steel self-drilling screws hold up outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
The JTEKD16V is AISI 1016-1024 steel with a zinc finish, which is a dry indoor-use coating. It is the right choice for electrical rooms, ceiling grid, panel and enclosure mounting. For wet exterior, coastal, or corrosive duty, specify a stainless self-drilling screw instead.
7) What standards and torque rating do these #8 drill screws hold to?
Dimensions are to ASME B18.6.3-2010 and threads to SAE J78-2013, with a minimum torsional strength of 42 lb-in and a case hardness of Rockwell C32-40. That is the drive torque headroom that keeps the head from twisting off in an impact driver on 0.100 inch steel.
8) Is 5/8 inch long enough for the material I am fastening through?
The JTEKD16V is a #8 diameter by 5/8 inch screw, so after the drill point and the material thickness it leaves only a short grip. It suits attaching light hardware, straps, and plates directly to sheet steel up to 0.100 inch. If you are stacking two members or going through a spacer, step up to a longer length in the same series.
