Metallics JTEKDF2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need to pre-drill a pilot hole for the Metallics JTEKDF2 screw?
No. The JTEKDF2 is a self-drilling screw, so the point cuts its own hole as you drive it. That is what the SD in the description stands for, and it is why electricians use this type for fastening into light-gauge metal without a separate drilling step.
2) What driver bit do I need for the Metallics JTEKDF2 screws?
A #2 Phillips bit. The head is a Phillips flat head taking a #2 point, which is the most common bit already in a contractor's driver, so no special tooling is needed for a jar of these.
3) Will a flat head screw like the JTEKDF2 sit flush, or will it stand proud of the surface?
Flat head screws are designed to seat flush in a countersunk or dimpled hole. On flat sheet metal with no countersink, the tapered head will still stand slightly above the surface. If you need the fastener fully flush on plain sheet, plan on countersinking, or use a pan or hex washer head screw instead where a raised head is acceptable.
4) Is the zinc finish on the JTEKDF2 screw suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
Zinc plated steel is an indoor, dry-location finish. The JTEKDF2 is steel with a zinc plating, which handles normal interior electrical work but will corrode in wet, damp, or exterior exposure. For outdoor raceway, wet locations, or coastal work, specify a stainless steel self-drilling screw instead.
5) How many screws come in a jar of Metallics JTEKDF2?
100 screws per jar. Metallics packs this one as a jar rather than a box, which is the shop-bench format, so stocking a service van or a panel shop bin means ordering by the jar.
6) What is the Metallics part number for the #8 x 3/4 inch self-drilling Phillips flat head screw?
JTEKDF2 is the Metallics manufacturer part number for the #8 x 3/4 inch Phillips flat head self-drilling zinc plated screw, supplied 100 per jar. Use that number when cross-referencing or reordering.
