Diversitech DIVE-5-SCR101DP Sheet Metal Screw No.10 500 Pack

Product Description

The DIVERSITECH DIVE-5-SCR101DP is a self-drilling, self-tapping sheet metal screw designed for fast, reliable fastening in metal fabrication and HVAC ductwork applications. The No. 10 shank with a 1-inch length and drill-point tip eliminates the need for a pilot hole, cutting its own path through sheet metal in a single operation. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface and accepts a standard hex driver or nut driver. Each screw is made from special heat-treated steel for added strength and fatigue resistance. Sold in a 500-count pack, these are a staple fastener for HVAC installers, sheet metal mechanics, and general contractors working with light-gauge metal.

These screws are commonly used in residential and commercial HVAC ductwork assembly, metal stud framing, electrical enclosures, and equipment panels. The drill-point tip produces an optimum hole size for a tighter thread engagement compared to standard sheet metal screws, reducing the chance of strip-out. A 500-count pack quantity makes this suitable for production installs or stocking a service vehicle.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a hex-head nut driver or impact driver set to an appropriate torque-limiting clutch setting to avoid overdriving the fastener. Always ensure the metal substrate is clean and free of debris before driving. Follow applicable mechanical codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing in ductwork or structural metal assemblies. Wear appropriate eye protection when driving self-drilling fasteners into sheet metal.
