Metallics TP346SFC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics TP346SFC a tamper-resistant screw, and what driver does it take?
Yes, it is a tamper-resistant spanner screw, often called a snake-eye. The head takes a two-pin spanner bit, not a Phillips or hex key, so you need the matching spanner driver on hand before install. That is the point of the head style: it discourages removal of covers, plates, and enclosures in public or shared areas.
2) Will a flat head machine screw like the TP346SFC sit flush on my cover plate?
Only if the hole is countersunk. The TP346SFC has a flat head, which is designed to seat into a chamfered or countersunk hole and finish flush with the surface. On a flat, un-countersunk plate the head will stand proud. If your plate is drilled straight through with no chamfer, a pan or truss head tamper-resistant screw is the better match.
3) How many screws come in a pack of Metallics TP346SFC?
Each pack of the TP346SFC is 100 pieces, so one box covers a fleet of cover plates or enclosure lids rather than a single device. These are sold as US-made machine screws under Metallics part number TP346SFC.
4) Can I use the Metallics TP346SFC to fasten directly into drywall or wood?
No. It is a machine screw, so the threads run full length at a uniform 1/4-20 pitch and need a pre-tapped hole, a nut, or a threaded insert to hold. For wood or drywall you want a wood screw or a drywall anchor instead; for sheet metal without a tapped hole, a self-tapping sheet metal screw.
