Value Collection 09692864 No. 12 Self Drilling Screw 25 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 09692864 is a No. 12 self-drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a hex washer head and hex drive, this screw delivers consistent torque transfer and a broad bearing surface that resists pull-through. The 3-point drill tip bores through material and taps its own thread in a single operation. At 3/4 inches in length under head, it suits thin-to-medium material stacking. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it provides basic corrosion resistance for general-purpose interior and light exterior applications. Sold in a package of 25.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC duct assembly, light metal framing, electrical panel mounting, and general sheet metal work where speed and self-threading capability are required. The hex washer head style is standard in mechanical and trade installations where a driver socket or nut driver is already in use. The zinc plating meets basic requirements for dry and intermittently damp indoor environments. Suitable for residential and light commercial jobsite use by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general tradespeople.

Key Features

• No. 12 diameter with a No. 3 drill point for self-drilling into light-gauge steel and similar materials

• Hex drive allows use with a standard nut driver or hex bit for fast installation
• 3/4-inch length under head suits thin sheet metal and panel fastening applications
• Grade 2 steel construction with zinc-plated finish for general-purpose corrosion resistance
• Sold in a 25-count package with a minimum order quantity of 1

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose No. 12 self-drilling fastener compatible with light-gauge sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-material assemblies requiring a hex washer head profile.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a hex driver bit or nut driver sized to fit the hex washer head. Apply consistent axial pressure when driving to allow the drill point to engage cleanly without walking. Avoid over-driving, which can strip the self-tapped thread or deform the base material. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer fastener schedules when used in structural or code-regulated assemblies.
