Metallics JTEKDF14 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and head style is the Metallics JTEKDF14 screw?
It's a #8 by 1 inch screw with a Phillips flat head, driven with a #2 Phillips bit. The flat head sits flush when the hole is countersunk or when it's pulled into sheet metal, so it won't interfere with a plate, cover or box face mounted over it.
2) Does the JTEKDF14 need a pilot hole drilled first?
No. It's a self-drilling screw, so the point cuts its own hole as it goes into sheet metal or light gauge framing. That's the reason it gets used on electrical work where you're fastening into a stud track or a metal box without stopping to pre-drill.
3) How many Metallics JTEKDF14 screws come in a pack?
They ship 100 to a jar. The jar pack is what you want on a service van or a shop bench, where you're pulling a handful at a time rather than opening a bulk box.
4) Are these zinc plated screws okay for outdoor or damp locations?
The JTEKDF14 is steel with a zinc plating, which is a mild corrosion coating meant for dry interior work. For exterior, wet or corrosive locations, specify a stainless or hot dip galvanized self-drilling screw instead.
5) What thickness of material will a 1 inch self-drilling screw hold in?
At 1 inch overall length, the JTEKDF14 is sized for thin assemblies: sheet metal to sheet metal, strap or clip to metal stud, or a device and cover into light gauge. Once you're stacking much past roughly half an inch of material you lose the thread engagement past the far side, and you should move up to a longer self-drilling screw.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the 8 x 1 Phillips flat head self-drilling screw?
Metallics catalogues it as JTEKDF14. That number covers the #8 x 1 inch Phillips flat head self-drilling screw in zinc plated steel, jar of 100.
