Value Collection -38340-1 No.10 Pan Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -38340-1 is a No. 10 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, brackets, ductwork, and light-gauge sheet metal assemblies. Each screw measures 1.25 inches in length under head and features a Type AB point for self-starting penetration into pre-drilled or punched holes. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, these screws offer corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered applications. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface without sharp edges, making it a common choice for HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal fabrication. This package contains 50 screws.

These screws are used across residential and light commercial trade work wherever thin-gauge metal panels or components need to be secured. HVAC technicians reach for No. 10 pan head Phillips screws when assembling or patching sheet metal duct sections, attaching access panels, and fastening equipment covers. Electricians use them for metal enclosure and junction box work. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard and impact-rated bits, speeding up installation in repetitive fastening tasks on the job site.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 Type AB sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge steel panel, ductwork, and enclosure fastening applications where a pan head Phillips drive is specified.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general sheet metal fabricators using a Phillips-tip power driver or hand screwdriver. Always match screw size to the gauge and pre-drilled hole diameter specified by the assembly design. Avoid over-driving, which can strip the thread engagement in thin material. When used on energized electrical enclosures, de-energize and lock out the equipment before fastening per applicable NEC guidelines.
