Value Collection SMPFI-1201500-100BX Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPFI-1201500-100BX is a No. 12 flat head Phillips drive sheet metal screw designed for fastening light-gauge sheet metal, thin steel panels, and related materials in trade applications. The screw measures 1.5 inches in overall length and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface, making it well suited for installations where a low-profile fastener is required. These screws ship in a box of 100 and are used by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general sheet metal workers who need a reliable, bulk-quantity fastener on the job.

This screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure work, metal framing, and sheet metal panel attachment. The Type A and Type AB point types allow it to self-start in thin-gauge sheet metal without a pre-drilled pilot hole in most applications, speeding up installation on duct sections, equipment cabinets, and metal housings. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits widely used across all trades.

Key Features

• No. 12 thread size for secure engagement in light-gauge sheet metal
• 1.5-inch overall length accommodates common sheet metal thicknesses
• Flat head profile sits flush for a clean, low-profile finish
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 bits
• Type A and Type AB point types for self-starting in sheet metal
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry interior environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 12 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar applications requiring a flush-mount fastener.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips bit and a standard drill or screw gun. Ensure the base material gauge is appropriate for the screw size before driving to avoid stripping or overdriving the fastener. Power down any electrical enclosures before fastening panels or covers. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing on ductwork and panel assemblies.
