Hillman Fasteners 80101 Zinc Sheet Metal Screw No.12x2in 100pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 80101 is a zinc-plated sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in thin metal substrates. This No. 12 x 2 inch pan head screw features a Phillips drive and a zinc finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for interior and sheltered applications. Sold in a 100-pack, it is suited for high-volume trade work where consistent fastener sizing and reliable pull-through resistance matter. Sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors reach for this screw when securing ductwork flanges, metal panels, junction boxes, and light-gauge metal framing components.

This screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial settings wherever sheet metal-to-metal or sheet metal-to-substrate connections are required. HVAC installers frequently use No. 12 sheet metal screws for duct connections, access panel fastening, and equipment enclosure assembly. Electricians and general trades also use pan head sheet metal screws when securing metal conduit supports and enclosure covers. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across the material surface, reducing the chance of pull-through on thinner gauge stock.

Key Features

• No. 12 x 2 inch size suits medium-duty sheet metal fastening tasks
• Phillips drive compatible with standard and cordless screwdrivers
• Pan head profile provides broad bearing surface to reduce pull-through
• Zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for dry and sheltered environments
• 100-pack quantity reduces per-fastener cost on production and service jobs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or general-use fastener for applications requiring No. 12 x 2 inch zinc pan head Phillips sheet metal screws in light-gauge metal assemblies.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws are installed by qualified trades including HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians. Always pre-drill or use a self-tapping technique appropriate to the gauge of the base material to avoid distortion or strip-out. Power down and de-energize any electrical equipment before driving fasteners into or adjacent to energized enclosures, per NEC guidelines. Do not overtorque — pan head screws in light-gauge metal are susceptible to thread strip-out if driven past seating.
