Value Collection R55000118 Self Drilling Screw No. 14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R55000118 is a No. 14 self-drilling screw designed for secure fastening in demanding trade and industrial applications. It features a flat head profile with a Phillips drive and a No. 3 drill point, allowing it to drill its own pilot hole and tap threads in a single pass. The overall length is 2.5 inches. Constructed from Grade 410 stainless steel, this screw provides corrosion resistance and reliable strength in environments where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern. It is suitable for use by HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors working with sheet metal, light structural components, and similar materials.

This self-drilling screw is commonly used in light commercial and residential construction and mechanical installations. The No. 3 drill point is rated for use in thicker material gauges compared to finer drill points, making it appropriate for attaching sheet metal panels, ductwork flanges, equipment enclosures, and structural framing connections where a flat, flush-seated fastener head is required. Phillips drive compatibility makes it accessible with standard hand tools and power drivers widely used in the field.

Key Features

• No. 14 screw size with 2.5-inch overall length for reach in deeper fastening applications
• No. 3 drill point drills and taps in a single operation, eliminating the need for a pre-drilled pilot hole
• Flat head profile sits flush with the surface after installation
• Phillips drive compatible with common power drivers and hand screwdrivers
• Grade 410 stainless steel construction offers corrosion resistance and durability in exposed or humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for applications requiring a No. 14 self-drilling screw with a flat head and No. 3 drill point in inch sizing.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, or general contractors using a Phillips-head power driver or hand screwdriver. Ensure the driver bit is properly seated before applying torque to avoid cam-out and head damage. When working on live electrical enclosures or pressurized systems, de-energize and depressurize before fastening. Follow applicable building and mechanical codes for fastener spacing and load requirements.
