Value Collection R52000937 No 10 Pan Head Self Drilling Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R52000937 is a No. 10 pan head self drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a Phillips drive and a No. 2 drill point, this screw cuts its own thread and hole simultaneously, reducing installation steps in sheet metal, light steel framing, and similar applications. The 5/8-inch length under head suits thin-material applications where a low-profile pan head is required. Manufactured from grade 1016/1024 carbon steel with a zinc-plated finish, these screws offer baseline corrosion resistance suitable for interior and light-duty applications.

These self drilling screws are commonly used in HVAC sheet metal work, light structural steel assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, and general manufacturing environments. The pan head profile distributes clamping load over a wider surface area, making it appropriate for softer substrates or where a flush or countersunk head is not required. Sold in multiples of 100 per order, they are suited for professional tradespeople who require consistent, volume quantities on the job or in the shop.

Key Features

• No. 2 drill point self-starts in light-gauge steel without a pilot hole
• Pan head profile provides broad bearing surface and low-profile clearance
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers
• Grade 1016/1024 carbon steel construction for reliable shear and tensile strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for interior installations
• Meets AISI 1016, ASME B18.6.3, ASME B18.6.4, and SAE J78 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-measurement No. 10 pan head self drilling screw suitable for light-gauge sheet metal and steel fastening applications where a Phillips drive and No. 2 drill point are specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, electricians, or general contractors using a standard Phillips bit in a variable-speed drill or screw gun. Ensure the workpiece material gauge is appropriate for a No. 2 drill point before driving. Do not over-torque, as pan head self drilling screws in light-gauge material can strip the formed thread or pull through the substrate. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA standards for HVAC duct assembly when used in mechanical work.
