Metallics TP136SBC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size and length is the Metallics TP136SBC tamper-resistant screw?
The TP136SBC is a 3/8-16 x 1 inch machine screw. The 3/8-16 is a coarse (UNC) machine screw thread, so it mates with a 3/8-16 tapped hole or nut, and the 1 inch length is measured under the button head.
2) What kind of driver do I need for a Metallics button head hex pin screw?
It takes a hex pin (pin-in-hex) bit, not a standard hex key. The TP136SBC has a hex socket with a solid pin in the center, so a plain Allen wrench will not seat. You need the matching pin-in-hex security bit for the socket size, which is why these get used where you want the fastener to resist casual removal.
3) Will a button head hex pin screw sit flush in a countersunk hole?
No. A button head sits proud of the surface with a low rounded crown and a flat bearing shoulder, so it bears on the face of the material rather than pulling into a chamfer. For a flush surface you want a flat head (countersunk) tamper-resistant screw instead. The TP136SBC is the button head style.
4) How many screws come in a pack of Metallics TP136SBC?
100 pieces per pack. That makes it a box quantity for crews doing repeat tamper-resistant work (panel covers, enclosure lids, fixture guards) rather than a one-off replacement part.
