Value Collection SMPFI-1402000-100BX Sheet Metal Screw No. 14

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPFI-1402000-100BX is a No. 14 flat head Phillips drive sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in sheet metal applications. Built from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this screw measures 2 inches in overall length and features a Type AB point for clean thread engagement in pre-punched or self-starting holes. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface after installation. This fastener is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians when assembling ductwork, enclosures, panels, and equipment housings.

This screw is suited for light- to medium-gauge sheet metal work in both residential and commercial settings. Typical applications include securing HVAC duct sections, electrical enclosure panels, equipment covers, and metal framing components. The No. 14 thread size and 2-inch length make it appropriate for situations requiring a larger-diameter fastener with added holding depth. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations.

Key Features

• No. 14 thread size for high holding strength in sheet metal
• Flat head design sits flush with the work surface
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power drivers and screwdrivers
• Type AB point for self-starting engagement in pre-punched holes
• Grade 2 steel construction with zinc finish for corrosion resistance
• 2 inches overall length suitable for multi-layer or thicker sheet metal assemblies

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 14 Type AB sheet metal screw suitable for light- to medium-gauge steel sheet metal assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a Phillips bit driver or drill driver set to appropriate clutch torque to avoid stripping the head. Power off and de-energize any electrical enclosure or HVAC system before fastening panels or covers. Pre-punch or pilot-drill holes in heavier-gauge stock to reduce fastener stress and improve thread engagement. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards or NEC enclosure requirements when securing panels or ductwork.
