Value Collection R50000320 No. 10 Oval Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R50000320 is a No. 10 oval head Phillips sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 1016-1024 steel with a zinc-plated finish. It measures 2 inches in overall length and uses a Type AB point for reliable thread engagement in sheet metal and light-gauge materials. The Phillips drive accepts a No. 2 driver bit. This fastener is sized and finished for general trade and light fabrication work, including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and sheet metal assemblies where a low-profile oval head and corrosion-resistant finish are required.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where sheet metal panels, covers, and housings need to be secured without a flush or pan head profile. The oval head sits slightly above the surface, providing a finished appearance while keeping a low seating profile. HVAC installers, electricians, and sheet metal workers commonly use this fastener when assembling duct sections, access panels, and control enclosures. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected outdoor installations.

Key Features

• No. 10 thread size with Type AB self-tapping point for fast engagement in sheet metal
• Oval head profile provides a finished look with low protrusion above the material surface
• No. 2 Phillips drive compatible with standard power and hand drivers
• Grade 1016-1024 steel construction for reliable strength in light-gauge fastening applications
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in indoor and protected environments
• Meets AISI 1016, ANSI/ASME B18.6.4, ASME B18.6.3, and SAE J933 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 Type AB sheet metal screw suitable for use in thin-gauge steel panels, enclosures, duct assemblies, and similar light sheet metal fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips bit with a power driver or manual screwdriver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended for harder or thicker gauge materials to prevent material distortion. Avoid over-driving, as the Type AB point can strip thin sheet metal if excessive torque is applied. Follow applicable mechanical and electrical codes for fastener requirements in specific assemblies.
