Value Collection SMPPI-1000370-100BX Sheet Metal Screw 10

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPPI-1000370-100BX is a No. 10 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fastening light-gauge sheet metal, ductwork, and related assemblies. Supplied in a box of 100, each screw measures 3/8 inches in length under the head and features a Phillips drive for use with standard power tools or hand drivers. The Type AB point type allows for self-starting in pre-punched or drilled sheet metal without requiring a separate tapping step. Finished in zinc for basic corrosion resistance, these screws are made from Grade 2 steel. HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers commonly use this fastener size during duct assembly, panel attachment, and general metal fabrication tasks.

This fastener is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a compact, reliable sheet metal screw is needed. The 3/8-inch under-head length makes it appropriate for thin sheet metal connections, junction box covers, electrical enclosures, and HVAC duct flanges. The pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface against the material, distributing clamping load evenly. Sold in a 100-count box, this quantity is practical for service vehicles, job site kits, and shop stock replenishment.

Designed as a standard No. 10 pan head Type AB sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal applications including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and metal panel assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a Phillips-tip screwdriver or compatible power driver bit. Ensure the workpiece is properly secured before driving screws, and use the correct pilot hole size per the sheet metal gauge being fastened to avoid material distortion. De-energize any electrical enclosures or HVAC systems before fastening panels or access covers. Do not overtighten, as doing so can strip the sheet metal and reduce holding strength.
