@rocksteadytileco: We don’t encounter metal studs often in our projects, so I needed some clarification from @schlutersystemsna on mounting their board to them. A quick call to the technical team and I had my answer. #schlutersystems

Nice job. Smart with the screws!

Greyhat :

Dude I’ve been searching tik tok and YouTube for 2 damn weeks looking for what to do in this situation. Thank you! The funny thing is, this popped up on my normal feed without searching. 🤦‍♂️

Alejandro Longoria :

First rule, if you don’t know ask

twerk4tile :

We don’t use self tappers because they go thru the plate protecting pipes. So we use fine thread which grabs good and eats thru the 14gauge metal studs. I’ve seen guys use self tappers and end up hit gas lines, water pipes, because one guy is cautious and is paying attention, there were 10-15 that didn’t give two shits.

I like that “ no bueno “

Schluter used to have fine thread for steel. Not sure why they dropped it. I have used wedi screws with Schluter washers. Wedi screws have a duel thread that work on wood or steel studs.
