Value Collection 1412U Sheet Metal Screw No. 14 Round Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1412U is a No. 14 round head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal and light-gauge materials in mechanical, HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. The screw features a Type U drive point for self-starting entry without a pilot hole in many applications, and a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in standard indoor environments. Manufactured from Grade 1016-1024 steel, it meets AISI 1016, ASME B18.6.3, and ASME B18.6.4 standards. Length under head measures 0.75 inches. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package. Installers in HVAC, electrical, and sheet metal trades keep this size stocked for ductwork, enclosures, and panel assembly work.

This screw is suited for light-gauge sheet metal assembly in both residential and commercial settings. Common applications include HVAC ductwork connections, electrical junction box and panel enclosures, metal framing accessories, and similar thin-metal fastening tasks. The round head profile provides a broad bearing surface and sits above the material surface, making it appropriate where flush seating is not required. Packaged in quantities of 100, this screw is practical for job-site replenishment and bulk fastener inventory.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by qualified HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a power screwdriver or drill with the appropriate bit. Always verify material gauge and screw size compatibility before driving to avoid stripping or material deformation. Follow applicable codes including SMACNA duct construction standards for HVAC applications and the NEC for electrical enclosure work. Use appropriate eye protection when working with self-starting fasteners in sheet metal.
