Metallics JTEKS8 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and head style is the Metallics JTEKS8 screw?
The JTEKS8 is a #10 x 5/8 inch pan head Phillips screw in steel. The pan head sits low with a broad flat bearing surface, so it seats cleanly against sheet metal, strap, and box flanges without countersinking, and it drives with a standard Phillips bit.
2) Is the JTEKS8 a self-drilling screw, or do I need to pre-drill?
No pre-drilling. The JTEKS8 is a self-drilling TEK style screw with a type 2 drill point, so it cuts its own hole and taps the thread in one pass through sheet metal. That is what makes it quick for attaching straps, clips, and brackets to studs or enclosures where you cannot get a drill and a driver on the same spot.
3) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JTEKS8?
Each jar holds 100 of the #10 x 5/8 inch self-drilling pan head screws. The jar pack is the handy size for a van or a gang box rather than a bulk carton, so it suits service work and small rough-in runs where you are pulling a handful per job.
4) Will a 5/8 inch self-drilling screw be long enough for my application?
At 5/8 inch overall, the JTEKS8 is sized for thin material: sheet metal, light gauge steel stud, box and enclosure flanges, and strap or clip attachment. Once the point and the drilled material are accounted for, usable thread engagement is short, so it is not the screw for stacking thick plate or for anchoring into wood framing where you want deeper bite. For those, step up to a longer self-drilling screw or a wood screw.
5) What is the Metallics part number to order this #10 self-drilling pan head screw?
Order it as Metallics JTEKS8. That designation covers the #10 x 5/8 inch pan head Phillips self-drilling steel screw in the 100 count jar, and it is the only configuration the number refers to, so there is no length or finish option to specify alongside it.
