Featuring a hex washer head with a hex drive, this screw measures 2 inches in length under the head and carries a No. 5 drill point, which provides the aggressive cutting geometry needed to penetrate heavier gauge steel without a pilot hole. Sold in a package of 100, the 560047 is a steel screw built to the inch measurement system with a No. 12-24 thread configuration. Licensed tradespeople and sheet metal installers turn to this fastener for secure, vibration-resistant connections in metal framing, ductwork, and mechanical enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is suited for commercial and residential applications where a self-drilling fastener eliminates the need for a pre-drilled hole. The No. 5 drill point allows penetration of thicker steel stock compared to smaller point designations, making it a practical choice for structural steel framing, metal stud assemblies, equipment enclosures, and HVAC duct connections. The hex washer head bearing surface distributes clamping load and resists pull-through. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and mechanical contractors typically carry this screw for field fabrication and equipment installation work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 5 drill point for self-drilling into heavier gauge steel without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 12-24 thread size for strong thread engagement in metal substrates\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex washer head provides a wide bearing surface and resists pull-through\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex drive accepts standard hex-shank power tool bits for fast installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2 inches length under head suits a range of metal-to-metal fastening depths\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackage of 100 screws reduces reorder frequency on active job sites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fastener for sheet metal, light structural steel, and mechanical equipment enclosure applications requiring a No. 12 self drilling screw with a No. 5 drill point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed with a hex-drive power screwdriver or impact driver set to a controlled torque to avoid stripping the hex washer head. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before driving the screw. No pilot hole is required when the No. 5 drill point is used within its rated steel thickness range. Follow applicable building and mechanical codes, including SMACNA guidelines where duct connections are involved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 12-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 threads per inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0187 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ITW BUILDEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 560047\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ITW BUILDEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51713456996658,"sku":"560047","price":143.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/45965f3c8f8007458ffb78c4b62c13c1.jpg?v=1788493826","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/itw-buildex-560047-self-drilling-screw-no-12-pack-100","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
