Installation Notes

Sheet metal screw kits of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and mechanical contractors using a dot drive bit and appropriate power or hand driver. Ensure the mating material is properly supported and aligned before driving screws to avoid stripping light-gauge sheet metal. Always de-energize electrical enclosures and shut down HVAC equipment before opening panels or installing fasteners in live assemblies. Follow applicable NEC or IFGC guidelines for fastener use in code-governed installations.
