Metallics TP518SFC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What driver do I need for the Metallics TP518SFC screw?
It takes a hex pin tamper resistant bit, which is a hex socket with a center hole to clear the security pin. A standard hex key or hex bit will not seat because the pin blocks it, so you need the pin-in-hex driver in the matching size on the truck before you start the install.
2) How many screws come in a box of Metallics TP518SFC?
Each box holds 100 pieces of the #14 x 1-1/2 inch tamper resistant flat head screw. Order by the box when you are standardizing security fasteners across a run of panels, covers, or signage so every opening takes the same driver.
3) Why use a tamper resistant screw like the TP518SFC instead of a regular sheet metal screw?
A standard Phillips or hex sheet metal screw can be backed out by anyone with a bit from the hardware aisle. The hex pin head on the TP518SFC needs a pin-in-hex security driver, which is what you want on electrical enclosure covers, equipment guards, and public-area panels where casual removal is the problem you are solving. Holding power is the same as any #14 sheet metal screw; the difference is purely the drive.
4) Does the TP518SFC flat head screw need a countersunk hole?
Yes. It is a flat head, so it is made to pull down into a countersunk or dimpled hole and finish flush with the surface. On flat sheet stock with a plain drilled hole the head will stand proud. If you need the head to sit on top of the material, a flat head is the wrong style for that hole.
