Metallics JTEK16P – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What standards do these Metallics TEK screws conform to, and are they Buy American compliant?
Head and recess geometry follows ASME B18.6.3-2010, and the thread and drill point follow SAE J78-2013. They are not Buy American compliant and are not ARRA compliant, with multiple countries of origin, so they will not satisfy a domestic-sourcing requirement on a federally funded job.
2) Do I need a pilot hole for the Metallics JTEK16P screws?
No. It is a Type BSD self-drilling and tapping screw, so the drill point cuts the hole and the 18 threads-per-inch thread forms its own mating thread in one pass. Just hold steady pressure until the point breaks through before the threads engage.
3) How much torque can a #8 Metallics TEK screw take before it snaps?
Minimum torsional strength is 42 lb-in, with the screw hardened to Rockwell C32-40. That is plenty for a screw gun on a clutch setting, but an impact driver run wide open will twist the head off a #8. Set the clutch and stop when the head seats.
4) Will a pan head screw sit flush, or does it stand proud of the panel?
It stands proud. The pan head is 0.105 to 0.115 inch high and 0.306 to 0.322 inch across, bearing on the surface rather than countersinking. Use it where you want clamping area on sheet metal or a bracket. If you need a flush face, you need a flat head screw and a countersunk hole.
5) Is a 5/8 inch TEK screw long enough for mounting boxes and straps to metal studs?
At 5/8 inch overall with a #8 diameter, there is enough length to pass through a strap or box ear and still get full thread engagement in sheet steel up to 0.100 inch thick. If you are stacking two brackets plus a panel, step up to a longer screw in the same JTEK family so the drill point clears the back of the steel before the threads load up.
6) How are the Metallics JTEK16P self-drilling screws packaged and what is the minimum order?
They come in a jar of 100, which is the order minimum. Shelf weight is 0.41 lbs for the jar.
