Value Collection 32146 Oval Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32146 is a No. 10 oval head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar sheet stock applications. The oval head profile sits slightly above the surface with a finished, countersunk appearance, making it a common choice where a flush-plus look is required. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, the screw provides basic corrosion resistance for light-duty indoor installations. Each pack contains 50 screws with an overall length of 1 inch, suited for standard production or service work where consistent fastener specs matter.

This screw is a practical fastener for HVAC techs, sheet metal workers, and electricians securing light-gauge metal assemblies. Common applications include HVAC plenum panels, junction box covers, electrical enclosures, and general-purpose sheet metal fabrication or repair. The Phillips drive accommodates standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers, and the zinc-plated finish is appropriate for dry or mildly humid indoor environments. The 50-piece pack quantity suits service truck stock or small production runs without excess inventory.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using standard Phillips-head drivers or drill drivers. Always de-energize electrical panels and HVAC systems before fastening near live components. Use appropriate drill bits or self-drilling techniques as required by the gauge of the material being fastened. Follow applicable codes such as the NEC for electrical enclosure work or SMACNA standards for ductwork assemblies.
