It features a pan head profile, Phillips drive, and a Type F point that cuts its own mating thread on installation, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole in many applications. The screw measures 1\/2 inch in length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance. Each box contains 100 screws. Licensed trades and general contractors install these fasteners in HVAC cabinet assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, and light-gauge metal work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese screws are suited for light industrial, commercial, and residential trade applications where a self-threading fastener is needed in thin metal or similar materials. Common uses include securing HVAC equipment panels, electrical box covers, junction boxes, and sheet metal assemblies. The pan head sits flush against flat surfaces without countersinking, and the Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and manual screwdrivers. The zinc plating makes these appropriate for indoor or sheltered installations where moderate corrosion resistance is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType F point cuts its own thread in pre-drilled metal, eliminating separate tapping in many applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePan head profile distributes clamping load across flat surfaces without requiring a countersunk hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePhillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for light-gauge fastening tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold in a box of 100 screws for jobsite and shop use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 10-24 UNC thread cutting fastener suitable for use in light-gauge steel panels, HVAC equipment cabinets, electrical enclosures, and similar sheet metal assemblies where a Type F thread cutting screw is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by qualified trades personnel following applicable codes, including NEC requirements where electrical enclosures are involved. Drill or punch a pilot hole sized to the manufacturer or application specification for 10-24 UNC thread cutting screws before driving. Use a Phillips bit rated for the drive size to avoid cam-out and fastener head damage. Do not overtorque — seat the screw until snug against the mating surface to avoid stripping the newly cut threads.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pan\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Phillips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: PPTCIF-1000500-100BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694852833586,"sku":"PPTCIF-1000500-100BX","price":4370.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6cf1b82da306da0f1c0a4a53f959163d.jpg?v=1788329089","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-pptcif-1000500-100bx-10-24-thread-cutting-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
