Value Collection 999021 No. 10 Oval Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 999021 is a No. 10 oval head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar thin-material assemblies. Driven with a Phillips bit, it features a 1.5-inch length measured under the head and is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel for strong corrosion resistance in wet, marine, or chemically exposed environments. The oval head profile sits low and flush-tapered against the work surface, making it a common choice where a finished appearance is required alongside a secure mechanical hold. This screw is installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, plumbers, and general trade professionals working with light-gauge metal panels, duct work, equipment enclosures, and similar applications.

This fastener is suited for residential and light commercial applications where corrosion resistance and a clean finished look are priorities. Typical uses include HVAC duct assembly, electrical panel trim, equipment housing covers, and outdoor or coastal installations where Grade 316 stainless steel provides superior resistance to chloride and salt-spray environments compared to standard 18-8 stainless. Sold in a pack of 10 per package.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, or plumbers using a Phillips-head screwdriver or power driver with a No. 2 Phillips bit. Ensure the workpiece is secure and de-energized before fastening panels on electrical or HVAC equipment enclosures. Do not overtighten stainless steel fasteners, as galling can occur — apply steady, controlled torque and consider an anti-seize compound for high-cycle or high-vibration joints. Follow applicable mechanical and building codes for the installation type.
