Value Collection SMPFI-1002500-100BX No.10 Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPFI-1002500-100BX is a No. 10 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in sheet metal and light gauge steel applications. At 2.5 inches in overall length, this screw features a Type AB point for easy starting without a pilot hole in most light-gauge materials. The Grade 2 steel construction with a zinc finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for general-purpose trade and construction environments. Sold in a box of 100, this fastener is a practical stock item for HVAC, electrical, and sheet metal fabrication shops.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure mounting, and light-gauge sheet metal fabrication. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface, making it appropriate for applications where a raised head would interfere with adjacent components or panels. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers used in the field. The Type AB point type is suited for use in pre-punched or pre-drilled holes in sheet metal and is a widely specified point style in duct and panel work.

Key Features

• No. 10 thread size for reliable hold in light-gauge sheet metal
• 2.5-inch overall length accommodates layered or thicker panel assemblies
• Flat head design seats flush with the workpiece surface
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Type AB point for easy starting in pre-punched sheet metal holes
• Zinc finish over Grade 2 steel for general corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose OEM-style replacement or stock fastener for use in sheet metal assemblies, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light-gauge steel fabrication where a No. 10 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw is specified.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal fabricators using a Phillips-tip power driver or hand screwdriver. Always ensure material thickness is compatible with the screw length to avoid over-penetration. Power down and de-energize any electrical enclosures before fastening near live components. Drive screws to snug and flush — avoid overdriving, which can strip the thread engagement in thin sheet metal.
