Itw Buildex 560075 No. 10 Pancake Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 560075 is a No. 10 sheet metal screw designed for fastening light-gauge sheet metal and similar materials in HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. It features a pancake head profile, Phillips drive, and a Type A point for self-starting penetration into pre-punched or pre-drilled sheet metal. The screw measures 1 inch in length under head and is manufactured from steel for reliable strength in standard indoor applications. Each package contains 100 screws. Installation is performed by licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, sheet metal workers, and skilled tradespeople.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a low-profile pancake head is required to maintain a flush or near-flush surface. Common uses include securing sheet metal panels, ductwork components, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-gauge assemblies. The Phillips drive accommodates standard power and hand tools widely used in the trade. The Type A point style is intended for use in sheet metal with pre-punched or pre-drilled pilot holes.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 Type A sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies including ductwork panels, electrical enclosures, and HVAC equipment housings requiring a low-profile pancake head fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, or electricians using a Phillips-tip bit with a power drill or hand screwdriver. Ensure a proper pilot hole or pre-punched opening is present before driving, as the Type A point is not self-drilling. Power down any associated electrical or mechanical equipment before fastening panels or enclosures. Follow applicable codes including SMACNA standards for ductwork and NEC guidelines for electrical enclosures.
