Value Collection SMPFI-1001250-100BX Sheet Metal Screw 100

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPFI-1001250-100BX is a No. 10 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw made from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish. At 1.25 inches overall length, it features a Type AB point for fast self-starting in sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar thin materials. The flat head design sits flush with the work surface after installation. These screws ship in a box of 100, making them practical for production work, service calls, or shop stock. Grade 2 steel provides adequate shear and tensile strength for general-duty fastening in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light structural sheet metal applications.

Type AB point sheet metal screws in this size are commonly used by HVAC technicians for duct assembly and access panel fastening, electricians for securing enclosure covers and junction boxes, and sheet metal workers for general fabrication. The No. 10 diameter and 1.25-inch length suit light to medium gauge sheet stock where a flush-finish fastener is required. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and protected outdoor installations.

Key Features

• No. 10 diameter with Type AB self-starting point for use in sheet metal without pre-drilling in many applications
• Flat head profile sits flush with the mating surface after seating
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bit or driver
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-duty shear and tensile loads
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion protection for indoor and protected environments
• Box of 100 units supports production fastening, service van stock, and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose sheet metal fastening screw suitable for light to medium gauge sheet metal assemblies including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, access panels, and similar thin-material applications.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician, electrician, or sheet metal worker typically installs these fasteners using a No. 2 Phillips bit in a power driver or hand screwdriver. Confirm the substrate gauge is within the rated range for Type AB point engagement before driving without a pilot hole. In electrical enclosures, ensure power is de-energized before fastening covers per NEC requirements. Avoid over-torquing, which can strip the sheet metal threads or crack the zinc coating.
