Metallics TP514SBC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and type of screw is the Metallics TP514SBC?
It's a #14 x 1/2 inch sheet metal screw with a button head and a pin-in-hex tamper resistant drive, sold 100 pieces to a box under part number TP514SBC.
2) What driver bit do I need for the pin-in-hex Metallics TP514SBC screws?
These take a pin-in-hex (hex socket with a center hole) security bit, not a standard Allen key or hex driver. The solid pin in the middle of the recess blocks an ordinary hex bit, so order the matching security bit set along with the screws if your crew doesn't already carry one.
3) Will a #14 x 1/2 inch sheet metal screw hold in thin gauge steel?
Yes, that's the intended use. Sheet metal screw threads on a #14 are coarse and full-depth, designed to cut and hold in sheet steel without a nut. Keep in mind the 1/2 inch length is the total screw length, so after the head and the material thickness there isn't much thread left for deep stacks, use a longer screw for anything beyond sheet goods.
4) Is the button head on the TP514SBC flush or does it sit above the surface?
A button head sits above the surface on a low, rounded dome, it does not countersink. If you need the fastener flush with a cover or panel face, you want a flat head tamper resistant screw instead, not the TP514SBC.
5) How many screws come in a box of Metallics TP514SBC?
100 screws per box. If you are standardizing tamper resistant fasteners across a building, that's one part number and one security bit covering every cover plate on the job.
