Metallics TW12212 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and thread is the Metallics TW12212 screw?
It is a 12-24 x 2-3/4 inch screw. The 12-24 callout is a machine-thread size (#12 diameter, 24 threads per inch) rather than a coarse wood thread, so it drives into pre-tapped or self-drilled metal and holds in sheet steel rather than relying on bite in soft material. Overall length is 2-3/4 inches, which is what lets it pass through a wood member and still engage metal behind it.
2) Will the TW12212 screw sit flush, and what driver do I need?
Flat head with a Phillips recess, so it countersinks flush with the surface when the hole is properly chamfered or the material is soft enough to let the head draw in. Bring a Phillips driver bit; no square or hex drive on this one.
3) Can I use the TW12212 in heavy structural steel, or only light-gauge?
Drill-point screws of this type are made for light-gauge steel framing and sheet metal. A #12 self-drilling point will not bore through structural plate or heavy beam steel, so for those connections you need a pre-drilled and tapped fastener or a powder-actuated pin instead. On typical metal studs, track, and sheet steel substrates behind a wood member, this is the right fastener.
4) How many screws come in a pack of Metallics TW12212?
Fifty pieces per pack. If you are hanging a run of boxes or backing on steel framing, count your fixings per device and multiply, since this ships as a single 50-count unit rather than loose or bulk.
