Value Collection SMPOI-1001000-100BX Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPOI-1001000-100BX is a No. 10 oval head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar thin materials. The Phillips drive allows for fast installation with standard power tools or a manual screwdriver. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. At 1 inch overall length, it seats flush with a low-profile oval head that sits slightly above the surface for a clean finished appearance. Sold in a box of 100, this fastener suits high-volume trade work on HVAC panels, ductwork, enclosures, and electrical boxes.

This screw is well suited for residential and light commercial applications where a No. 10 thread size and 1 inch length are required. HVAC technicians commonly use oval head sheet metal screws to secure cabinet panels, access doors, and duct flanges. Electricians use them on metal enclosures and junction boxes. The zinc finish provides adequate corrosion resistance for interior applications. The box quantity of 100 makes this fastener practical for service vans, job site kits, and shop stock where consistent hardware is needed across multiple installs.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips bit with a power driver or manual screwdriver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder or thicker gauge material is recommended to prevent distortion and ensure proper thread engagement. Avoid overdriving, which can strip the material or crack the head. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA guidelines for ductwork fastening spacing and the NEC for electrical enclosure fastening requirements.
