Value Collection SMHWHI-140100B0SL-100BX Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMHWHI-140100B0SL-100BX is a 1/4 inch hex washer head sheet metal screw with a slotted drive and Type B point, sold in a box of 100. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this fastener is designed for driving into sheet metal, light-gauge steel framing, and similar thin-material applications. The 1 inch length is measured under the head. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface and resists pull-through, while the slotted drive suits standard flat-blade drivers. The Type B point is self-tapping, eliminating the need to pre-tap the hole in most sheet metal applications. Licensed trades and general contractors reach for this screw when securing ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar sheet metal assemblies.

These screws are commonly used in HVAC duct fabrication, electrical panel and enclosure work, light-gauge metal framing, and sheet metal shop applications. The zinc finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered outdoor installations. At 1 inch under-head length, the fastener is well suited to thin-gauge stock where minimal thread engagement depth is required. This box of 100 is sized for single-job use or bench-stock replenishment on active service trucks.

Key Features

• Type B self-tapping point drives into sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Hex washer head provides wide bearing surface and reduces pull-through risk
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers and bits
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-duty fastening applications
• Zinc finish for corrosion resistance in indoor and sheltered environments
• 1 inch length measured under head for consistent gauge-to-gauge fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose sheet metal fastener suitable for use in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light-gauge steel assemblies where a 1/4 inch hex washer head slotted screw is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a flat-blade bit or driver. Ensure power is removed from any electrical enclosure before fastening. Do not overdrive — the hex washer head seats flush against the sheet metal surface when properly torqued by feel. For duct applications, follow SMACNA installation guidelines for fastener spacing and gauge requirements.
