Value Collection 1410ABPU No. 14 Flat Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1410ABPU is a No. 14 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal components in a wide range of trade and light industrial applications. The screw measures 5/8 inches in overall length and features a Type AB point for reliable thread engagement in pre-drilled or punched sheet metal. Manufactured from Grade 1016-1024 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. The Phillips drive accepts a No. 3 Phillips bit. This fastener is sold in multiples of 100 units per order.

This screw is well suited for HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, sheet metal panel attachment, and general mechanical fastening tasks where a flush or countersunk head profile is required. The flat head seats flush against the material surface, which is important in applications where clearance or airflow is a concern. Trade professionals including HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers rely on this screw size for everyday assembly and service work.

Key Features

• No. 14 thread size with Type AB point for positive engagement in sheet metal
• Flat head profile seats flush with the material surface
• No. 3 Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand tools
• Grade 1016-1024 steel construction for reliable tensile strength in light-duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• Meets AISI 1016, ASME B18.6.3, ASME B18.6.4, and SAE J933 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series sheet metal fastener suitable for use in ductwork, enclosures, panels, and other thin-gauge sheet metal assemblies where a No. 14 flat head Phillips screw is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified tradespeople using a No. 3 Phillips bit in a hand screwdriver or power driver set to an appropriate torque clutch setting to avoid stripping the head or material. Pilot holes or pre-punched openings should match the recommended diameter for a No. 14 Type AB screw per ASME B18.6.4 guidelines. Avoid over-driving, which can deform the sheet metal or compromise the fastener head. Always ensure the mating material gauge is appropriate for this thread size before installation.
