Metallics TP512SFC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need a special bit to drive a hex pin tamper-resistant screw?
Yes. The TP512SFC uses a hex recess with a pin standing in the middle of it, so you need a matching pin-in-hex (hex pin) driver bit or key. A plain hex key or Allen wrench will bottom out on the pin and won't engage. Order the driver separately if you don't already carry one.
2) Will a #10 x 1-1/2 tamper-resistant sheet metal screw work for securing enclosure covers and fixture trims?
That's what the TP512SFC is built for. Sheet metal screw threads cut into sheet steel and thin materials without a nut, and the pin-in-hex head keeps covers, trims, and panels from being opened with common tools. At 1-1/2 inches of length it's suited to applications with some standoff or thicker substrate rather than thin sheet-to-sheet, where a shorter screw sits better.
3) Is the hex pin screw the right choice versus a Torx or spanner tamper-resistant head?
Pin-in-hex, which is what the TP512SFC uses, is the common standard for electrical covers and public-area fixture trims and bits for it are widely stocked. Pick it when you want security without an exotic driver. If a facility has already standardized on pin-in-Torx or two-hole spanner heads, match that drive instead so one bit opens everything rather than carrying two.
4) How many Metallics TP512SFC screws come in a box?
100 pieces per box, all one part number (TP512SFC), so there's nothing to configure beyond quantity. For MRO stock where tamper-resistant fasteners get used a few at a time, one box typically covers a long run of cover and trim replacements.
