Value Collection PFTCIF02500750-100BX 1/4-20 Thread Cutting Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PFTCIF02500750-100BX is a 1/4-20 UNC thread cutting screw designed for creating mating threads in pre-drilled holes without requiring a tapped hole. It features a flat head profile, Phillips drive, and a Type F point, which uses a blunt, tapered end with chip relief flutes to cut clean threads into metal, plastics, and similar materials. Finished with zinc plating for basic corrosion resistance, this screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel. It measures 3/4 inches in overall length. Each box contains 100 screws, making it a practical option for volume fastening work on the job site or in a shop environment.

This screw is suited for light-duty metal assembly, electrical enclosure work, HVAC sheet metal fabrication, and general-trade fastening applications where a thread cutting fastener is preferred over a self-tapping design. The flat head countersinks flush with the work surface, making it appropriate for applications where a low-profile finish is required. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and sheet metal workers commonly use this fastener when assembling panels, brackets, and light-gauge metal components.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread size for compatibility with standard coarse-thread applications
• Type F point cuts threads directly into material, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole
• Flat head design countersinks flush for a clean, low-profile finish
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and drivers
• Zinc-plated Grade 2 steel construction provides basic corrosion protection
• Sold in a box of 100 for volume trade use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC thread cutting screw suitable for use in light-gauge metal, thermoplastics, and similar materials where thread cutting fasteners are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed with a No. 2 Phillips bit and an appropriate power driver or hand screwdriver set to a controlled torque to avoid stripping the newly cut threads. A correctly sized pilot hole is required before driving the screw; consult fastener manufacturer guidelines for recommended pilot hole diameters by material type. Always follow applicable codes and project specifications when selecting fastener size and material for structural or load-bearing assemblies.
