Value Collection R58005052 No. 12 Pan Head Phillips Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005052 is a No. 12 pan head sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in light-gauge metal applications. Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this fastener delivers strong corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments. The Phillips drive pan head sits flush and wide against the work surface, distributing clamping load evenly. Measured at 3/4 inches under the head, this screw is sized for thin sheet metal connections common in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, plumbing access panels, and similar trade applications.

This screw is well suited for residential and light commercial installations where corrosion resistance is a priority. Grade 316 stainless steel is particularly appropriate for coastal environments, chemical exposure areas, pool equipment enclosures, and other settings where standard carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians commonly use this screw size when securing sheet metal panels, junction boxes, and equipment housings.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance
• No. 12 thread size for reliable grip in light-gauge sheet metal
• 3/4-inch length under head suits standard sheet metal panel thickness
• Pan head profile distributes load across the fastening surface
• Phillips drive works with standard screwdrivers and power drivers
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and avoids coating delamination

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for No. 12 sheet metal screw applications in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and pool equipment installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or matching power driver bit. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in the sheet metal is recommended to prevent distortion and ensure thread engagement. Avoid overtightening, as stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling under excessive torque. Follow applicable NEC or mechanical code requirements for fastener spacing and panel attachment in your jurisdiction.
