It features a slotted drive and a Type AB point for self-starting penetration into light-gauge metal without pre-drilling in many applications. The shank is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The 0.75-inch length is measured under the head. This fastener is sold in minimum order quantities of 50 and is a staple hardware item for HVAC installers, sheet metal workers, and general trade technicians working with metal panels and enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, standard-thread sheet metal fastener is required. Typical uses include securing HVAC duct sections, junction box covers, electrical enclosures, and thin metal brackets. The hex washer head provides a bearing surface that distributes clamping load and accepts both a nut driver and a slotted screwdriver, making it practical in confined spaces where tool access is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType AB point for self-starting entry into light-gauge sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex washer head accepts nut driver or slotted screwdriver\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for standard-duty fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.75-inch length under head suits typical sheet metal panel thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in multiples of 50 for jobsite and shop stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 10 Type AB sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge metal panels, ductwork covers, and enclosure assemblies common in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians using a nut driver or slotted screwdriver sized for a No. 10 hex washer head. Ensure the substrate material gauge is appropriate for Type AB thread engagement before driving. Do not overtorque — strip-out is a common issue in thin sheet metal. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards when fastening ductwork assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type AB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31862\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51707912683826,"sku":"31862","price":17.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d3d95d2ed45ab035bd60d848dc15e149.jpg?v=1788442864","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-31862-no-10-hex-washer-sheet-metal-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
