Value Collection SMPOI-1002250-050B Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPOI-1002250-050B is a No. 10 oval head sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar substrates. It features a Phillips drive with a No. 2 bit size and a Type AB point for self-starting penetration without a pre-drilled pilot hole in many applications. Manufactured from Grade 1016/1024 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, this screw measures 2.25 inches in overall length. It is a staple fastener for HVAC fabrication, electrical enclosures, ductwork, and general sheet metal assembly work performed by trade professionals.

This screw is suited for light commercial and residential applications where a flush-to-slightly-raised head profile is preferred. The oval head sits with a low dome above the surface, making it a common choice in exposed sheet metal panels and HVAC cabinet assembly where appearance and pull-through resistance both matter. The Type AB point engages thin-gauge sheet metal and pre-punched holes without additional tooling. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 pieces per package, this fastener is intended for shop stock and field use alike.

Key Features

• No. 10 size with 2.25-inch overall length for medium-depth sheet metal fastening
• Oval head profile provides low-profile dome appearance with good bearing surface
• Phillips No. 2 drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Type AB point self-starts in sheet metal and pre-punched holes
• Zinc finish over Grade 1016/1024 steel for corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• Conforms to AISI 1016, ANSI/ASME B18.6.4, ASME B18.6.3, and SAE J933 standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series sheet metal screw compatible with light-gauge sheet metal applications in HVAC, electrical, and general metalwork fabrication.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a No. 2 Phillips bit using a hand screwdriver or power driver set to appropriate torque to avoid stripping the head. Ensure the substrate gauge and pre-punched or pilot hole dimensions are appropriate for a No. 10 Type AB point before driving. When used in electrical enclosures or panelboards, follow applicable NEC requirements for fastener use and enclosure integrity. Avoid overtorquing, which can strip the drive recess or deform thin-gauge sheet metal.
