It features a Type AB point for easy thread engagement and a slotted Phillips drive that accepts both flat and Phillips drivers. The 1-1\/4 inch length under head suits applications where a low-profile head and moderate thread engagement are required. Constructed from Grade 2 zinc-plated steel, the fastener resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. This screw is sold in a pack of 50, making it practical for service vans, shop stock, and field repairs. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians regularly use this fastener when securing access panels, equipment covers, and junction box covers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fastener is well suited for light-gauge sheet metal work in residential and light commercial settings. Common applications include securing HVAC duct sections, attaching equipment access panels, fastening electrical enclosure covers, and general light sheet metal assembly. The pan head provides a wide bearing surface and sits flush to slightly raised above the material surface. The Type AB point self-taps into pre-punched or drilled sheet metal without requiring a separate nut, simplifying single-sided access installations common in field service work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 12 thread size for secure engagement in light-gauge sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch length under head suits moderate-depth sheet metal fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePan head profile provides wide bearing surface and low-profile appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlotted Phillips drive accepts both flat-blade and Phillips drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType AB point self-taps into pre-punched or drilled sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated Grade 2 steel construction resists corrosion in indoor applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose No. 12 pan head sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, HVAC ductwork panels, equipment access covers, and electrical enclosures requiring a Type AB self-tapping fastener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a standard Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver or a power driver with appropriate bit. Always de-energize electrical equipment and shut off HVAC systems before removing or reinstalling access panels or enclosure covers. Pre-punch or pre-drill the correct pilot hole diameter for the sheet gauge being fastened to prevent material distortion. Avoid over-driving, as excess torque can strip the self-tapped thread in thin-gauge material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pan Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted Phillips\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-Plated\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: 50 pieces\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: 38741\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51788720242994,"sku":"38741","price":19.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/641167f54ab91b4d0dc0b3460ba5e3a8.jpg?v=1789231693","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-38741-no-12-pan-head-sheet-metal-screw-50-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
