Value Collection PPTCIF-1000750-100BX Thread Cutting Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PPTCIF-1000750-100BX is a 10-24 UNC thread cutting screw designed for secure fastening in metal and other rigid materials. The pan head profile provides a low-profile seating surface, while the Phillips drive allows for quick installation with standard power tools. At 3/4 inch length under head, this screw is suited for light- to medium-duty fastening applications where a pre-tapped hole is not required. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. This box contains 100 screws.

This screw is commonly used by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general tradespeople for attaching sheet metal panels, junction box covers, equipment enclosures, and similar hardware. The Type F point cuts its own mating thread in pre-drilled holes through steel sheet, light-gauge metal, and plastic, eliminating the need for a separate tapping operation. Its 10-24 UNC thread form is a widely used standard pitch in trade and light industrial fastening applications.

Key Features

• Type F thread cutting point self-taps into pre-drilled holes, no pre-tapping required
• 10-24 UNC thread form for broad compatibility with standard clearance and tap drill sizing
• Pan head provides a wide, flat bearing surface for flush or near-flush seating
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and screwdrivers
• Zinc-plated Grade 2 steel construction for corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• Sold in a box of 100 for job-site and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 10-24 UNC thread cutting fastener suitable for use in light-gauge steel, sheet metal, and similar rigid substrates where a Type F point cutting screw is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a No. 2 Phillips bit using a hand screwdriver or power driver set to a controlled torque clutch to avoid stripping the driven head. Drill a proper pilot hole sized to the 10-24 thread diameter before driving to ensure clean thread formation. Do not overdrive; pan head screws seat when the head contacts the work surface. Ensure power is off and equipment is de-energized before fastening into any electrical enclosure or HVAC panel.
