Value Collection C50000325 Sheet Metal Screw No. 10

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C50000325 is a No. 10 sheet metal screw with an oval head and Phillips drive, designed for fastening sheet metal, light-gauge steel assemblies, and similar thin-material applications. It is manufactured from Grade 1016/1024 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance. The overall length is 1.5 inches, and the Phillips drive size is No. 2. The Type AB point type allows for self-starting penetration in pre-pierced or punched sheet metal. This screw is a standard trade fastener used by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and sheet metal workers across residential and commercial service work.

This fastener is suited for light-duty sheet metal joining tasks where an oval head profile is required for a low-profile, finished appearance over a countersunk hole. Common applications include ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure panel attachment, HVAC cabinet fastening, and general sheet metal fabrication. Sold in a pack of 50, this screw meets AISI 1016, ANSI/ASME B18.6.4, ASME B18.6.3, and SAE J933 standards, making it appropriate for both production and service environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 oval-head sheet metal screw for use in pre-pierced or punched light-gauge sheet metal assemblies across HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips bit and a power driver or hand screwdriver. Always de-energize electrical equipment and ensure ductwork or enclosures are properly supported before fastening. Type AB screws require a pre-pierced or punched hole in the mating material for proper engagement. Do not overdrive — oval head screws can crack the countersink if excess torque is applied.
