Value Collection 34782 Flat Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 34782 is a No. 14 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw supplied in a 50-piece pack. Measuring 2 inches in overall length, it features a Type AB point for reliable thread engagement in light-gauge sheet metal, thin-walled tubing, and sheet steel assemblies. The flat head profile sits flush with the work surface when fully driven, making it well suited for applications where a smooth, snag-free finish is required. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it offers basic corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor and sheltered applications. Installed with a standard Phillips driver, it is a staple fastener for HVAC techs, electricians, and sheet metal workers.

This screw is used across a wide range of light-gauge sheet metal work, including HVAC duct assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, metal panel attachment, and equipment cabinet assembly. The Type AB thread form cuts cleanly into pre-punched or self-drilled holes in sheet steel and similar thin materials. Its flush-seating flat head makes it a practical choice wherever protruding fastener heads would interfere with mating surfaces or covers.

Key Features

• No. 14 thread size for secure engagement in light-gauge sheet metal
• 2-inch overall length suits a range of sheet thicknesses and stack-up conditions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for light-gauge sheet metal applications including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and metal panel assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a Phillips-tip driver or a drill driver set to an appropriate clutch torque to avoid stripping the drive recess. Confirm hole diameter matches the No. 14 thread specification before driving. For enclosure or panel work, follow applicable NEC or local code requirements regarding fastener placement and spacing. Do not overdrive; the flat head should seat flush without deforming the surrounding metal.
