Value Collection C12967 Sheet Metal Screw No. 10 Pan Head Phillips

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C12967 is a No. 10 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening light-gauge metal in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal fabrication. At 2 inches length under head, this screw features a Type A and Type AB point for clean starting in pre-punched or self-drilled applications. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance, it delivers consistent drive performance with a standard Phillips bit. This package contains 50 screws, making it a practical quantity for service calls and shop stock alike.

These screws are commonly used by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers for securing duct sections, junction box covers, equipment panels, and light structural sheet metal assemblies. The pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface suited for thin-gauge material where a lower-profile head is acceptable. The zinc finish offers adequate protection in dry indoor environments typical of residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws should be installed by qualified tradespeople following applicable codes including NEC for electrical enclosures and SMACNA standards for ductwork. Ensure the mating material is properly supported before driving to prevent deformation of thin-gauge stock. Use a correctly sized Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Do not overtighten, as pan head screws in sheet metal can strip threads or distort the base material.
