Value Collection 696412PR Size 14 Pan Head Slotted Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 696412PR is a Size 14 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, brackets, ductwork, and light sheet metal assemblies. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or bit. The Type A point is self-tapping, allowing the fastener to pierce and thread into sheet metal without a pre-tapped hole. Made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance, this screw measures 1.5 inches in length under the head. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 per package, making it suited for production and service environments where volume fastener stock is needed.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC ductwork fabrication and assembly, light-gauge sheet metal enclosures, electrical panels, and general trade applications where a pan head profile keeps the fastener low-profile against the mating surface. The Type A self-tapping point is appropriate for use in thin sheet metal and is a standard choice for HVAC installers, sheet metal workers, and general contractors working in light-gauge applications.

Key Features

• Size 14 thread provides strong bite in light-gauge sheet metal
• Pan head profile sits flush against mating surfaces without sharp protrusions
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and bits
• Type A self-tapping point — no pre-tapped hole required
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered applications
• Grade 2 steel construction for standard fastener-grade strength

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style sheet metal fastener suitable for light-gauge steel panels, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal assemblies requiring a Size 14 pan head slotted Type A self-tapping screw.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, or electricians using a flat-blade screwdriver or bit driver. Verify that the base material thickness is appropriate for the Type A point before driving. Do not overtorque — pan head sheet metal screws in light-gauge material can strip the thread engagement or deform the panel if driven beyond seating. Always follow applicable mechanical and trade codes for fastener selection in your jurisdiction.
