It features a Type A point for self-starting penetration into pre-pierced or punched sheet metal without the need for a tapped hole. The screw measures 2.5 inches under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface with a wide flat underside, making it suitable for applications where flush or recessed seating is not required. These are sold in multiples of 100.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is used across residential and light commercial trades, including HVAC ductwork fabrication and assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, sheet metal framing, and general sheet metal fastening. It is well suited for use by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians who regularly fasten light-gauge steel panels and covers. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and slotted bit drivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType A point self-starts in pre-pierced or punched sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePan head profile delivers a broad bearing surface for secure clamping on sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and power bit drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for light-gauge fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in minimum order quantities of 100 for job-site and shop use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 12 Type A sheet metal screw for use in pre-pierced or punched light-gauge sheet metal applications common in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal assembly work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, and electricians using a flat-blade screwdriver or slotted power bit. Ensure the receiving material is pre-pierced or punched to the appropriate pilot hole size for No. 12 Type A screws before driving. Do not overdrive, as pan head sheet metal screws can strip light-gauge material when excessive torque is applied. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards when using these fasteners in HVAC duct 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. 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type A\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161506\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: 696403PR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709259284786,"sku":"696403PR","price":4387.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a7a11a740a9866028a45c793f2315aa7.jpg?v=1788453590","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-696403pr-no-12-pan-head-slotted-sheet-metal-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
