Each screw features a No. 2 drill point that produces an optimum hole size for better thread engagement and a tighter fit without requiring a pre-drilled pilot hole. The shank is cold forged for uniform dimensional consistency and drill point contour. With 16 threads per inch and a 5\/16-inch drive, these screws are heat treated for strength and driven with a standard hex tip driver. This bulk pack contains 500 screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese bit-tip screws are suited for residential and commercial HVAC ductwork fabrication and installation, light gauge steel assembly, and sheet metal fastening tasks. The self-drilling design eliminates the need for auxiliary drill bits or welding equipment, making them a practical choice for field work and shop fabrication alike. HVAC technicians and sheet metal workers will find this fastener well suited to duct connections, flanges, and panel attachments where speed and reliability matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 2 drill point produces optimum hole size for better thread engagement and tighter fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCold forged construction ensures uniformity of dimension and drill point contour\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat treated steel for added strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16-inch hex drive compatible with standard hex tip drivers and screw guns\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEliminates need for separate drill bits or welding equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBulk pack of 500 screws for high-volume work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-use bit-tip screw for sheet metal and light gauge steel fastening applications common in HVAC ductwork and mechanical installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or sheet metal workers using a screw gun or drill with a 5\/16-inch hex driver bit. Power down and de-energize any associated electrical or mechanical systems before fastening near live components. Do not overdrive screws, as this can strip threads or distort thin gauge sheet metal. Follow applicable SMACNA standards and local mechanical codes for fastener spacing and joint requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-inch Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heat Treated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 500 per bulk pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lifetime Limited\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: MALCO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: BT141-500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MALCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51283999490354,"sku":"BT141-500","price":52.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309278274.jpg?v=1781065579","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/malco-bt141-500-hex-washer-bit-tip-screw-10x0-5in-16tpi-500pk","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
