Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 31747 is a No. 10 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fast, reliable fastening in light-gauge metal assemblies. It features a slotted drive, a Type A point for self-starting in pre-pierced or punched sheet metal, and a zinc-plated Grade 2 steel construction that resists corrosion in standard indoor and light-duty outdoor applications. The pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface and a low-profile finish. Each package contains 50 screws. Length under head measures 1.25 inches. This fastener is a standard workhorsefor HVAC techs, electricians, plumbers, and sheet metal workers who need a dependable general-purpose screw for ductwork, panels, brackets, and enclosures.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial trade applications where sheet metal components require secure mechanical fastening. Common uses include joining HVAC duct sections, securing electrical enclosure covers, attaching access panels, and fastening thin-gauge brackets or flanges. The Type A point is designed for use in pre-punched or pre-drilled holes in sheet metal and is not intended for use in thick plate or structural steel. The slotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers or slotted bit drivers for power tools.

Installation Notes

Install using a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted power bit. Always de-energize electrical panels and HVAC equipment before fastening enclosure covers or access panels. Ensure the receiving material is pre-punched or pre-drilled to the correct pilot hole size for a No. 10 Type A point screw. Do not overtighten, as over-driving can strip the thread engagement in thin-gauge metal.
