Value Collection 09692856 No.10 Self Drilling Screw 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 09692856 is a No. 10 self-drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening in light-gauge steel and similar substrates without requiring a pre-drilled pilot hole. The hex washer head provides a large bearing surface and is driven with a standard hex bit. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor and sheltered outdoor applications. The No. 3 drill point bores through the work material and taps its own thread in a single operation, reducing installation steps and labor time. Each package contains 25 screws.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications including HVAC ductwork attachment, metal framing, electrical enclosure assembly, and general sheet metal fabrication. The 1.5-inch length under head accommodates common material stack-ups encountered in duct board, light-gauge steel studs, and similar assemblies. It is installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, electricians, and general contractors using a hex-drive power tool or hand driver.

Key Features

• No. 3 drill point self-drills and self-taps in a single pass — no pilot hole required
• Hex washer head provides wide bearing surface and positive driver engagement
• Grade 2 steel construction for reliable tensile and shear strength in light-gauge applications
• Zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in sheltered environments
• 1.5-inch length under head suits common sheet metal and duct assembly stack-ups
• Sold in a 25-count package for job-site convenience

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 self-drilling screw for use in light-gauge steel sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, metal framing, and similar applications where a hex washer head and No. 3 drill point are specified.

Installation Notes

Self-drilling screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians using a hex-drive bit in a power screwdriver or drill. Ensure the drive speed is appropriate for the material thickness to avoid stripping the drill point before thread engagement. Do not overdrive — the hex washer head is designed to seat flush without countersinking. Follow applicable trade codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing in ductwork and framing assemblies.
