Value Collection 09692682 No.12 Self Drilling Screw 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 09692682 is a No. 12 self drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without the need for a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a hex washer head and hex drive, it delivers strong torque transfer and broad bearing surface contact. The No. 3 drill point bores through material and taps its own thread in a single step. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, each screw measures 1.5 inches under the head. This fastener is suited for light steel framing, HVAC ductwork, metal roofing panel attachment, and similar sheet metal assembly tasks performed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general contractors.

Self drilling screws of this size and drill point are a standard fastener in residential and light commercial HVAC duct fabrication and installation, metal stud framing, and electrical enclosure assembly. The No. 3 point handles light-gauge sheet metal applications typical in trade fieldwork. The hex washer head seats flush against the work surface, eliminating the need for a separate washer in most applications. Sold in a 25-piece package, this screw is appropriate for job-site use where consistent, repeatable fastening speed matters.

Key Features

• No. 3 drill point bores pilot hole and drives in one pass — no pre-drilling required
• Hex washer head provides wide bearing surface and resists pull-through on sheet metal
• Hex drive allows use with standard nut drivers and impact drivers
• Grade 2 steel construction suitable for light structural and sheet metal fastening
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected outdoor use
• Sold in a 25-piece package with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 12 self drilling screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, metal stud framing, and similar trade fastening applications where a No. 3 drill point is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a hex nut driver or impact driver set to a controlled torque setting — avoid overdriving, which can strip the thread or deform the material. Confirm material thickness is within the rated capacity of a No. 3 drill point before driving. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards when using self drilling screws in HVAC duct assembly. Wear appropriate eye protection when driving self drilling fasteners into sheet metal.
