Value Collection SMPFI-1401000-100BX Sheet Metal Screw No. 14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPFI-1401000-100BX is a No. 14 flat head Phillips drive sheet metal screw with a Type AB point, designed for fastening sheet metal components in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal fabrication work. The screw measures 1 inch in overall length and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance. Sold in a box of 100, this fastener suits high-volume production and service work where consistent, reliable threading into light-gauge metal panels and enclosures is required. HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers use this screw for ductwork, equipment enclosures, and panel assemblies.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where No. 14 diameter fasteners are specified. Common install scenarios include securing duct access panels, attaching sheet metal covers to air handlers, fastening junction box knockouts, and assembling fabricated metal enclosures. The Type AB point provides self-starting entry into pre-punched or pilot-drilled holes in light-gauge steel sheet. The flat head profile sits flush with the workpiece surface, making it appropriate where a low-profile fastener is needed.

Key Features

• No. 14 thread size for reliable grip in light-gauge sheet metal
• Flat head profile seats flush with the material surface
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers
• Type AB point for self-starting entry in pre-punched or pilot-drilled holes
• Grade 2 steel construction with zinc finish for corrosion resistance
• Box quantity of 100 supports production and high-volume service work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 14 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge steel sheet metal assemblies across HVAC, electrical, and general fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians using a Phillips bit in a hand driver or power drill. Ensure the workpiece is properly supported and that a pilot hole or pre-punched opening matches the recommended diameter for No. 14 Type AB screws before driving. Do not overdrive the screw, as the flat head can countersink too deeply in thin-gauge material and compromise holding strength. Follow applicable installation guidelines per local mechanical and electrical codes.
