Value Collection SMPPI-1000620-100BX Sheet Metal Screw No 10

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPPI-1000620-100BX is a No. 10 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fast, reliable fastening in light-gauge metal assemblies. At 5/8 inches in length under the head, this screw features a Type AB point for easy thread engagement without a pre-drilled pilot hole in thin sheet metal. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, it delivers adequate corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered applications. This box contains 100 screws, making it a practical quantity for service technicians and installers who need a reliable fastener on hand for panel work and equipment enclosures.

Sheet metal screws of this type are commonly used across HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication trades for securing duct flanges, equipment access panels, junction box covers, and metal enclosures. The pan head profile keeps a low, wide bearing surface that distributes load without snagging wiring or obstructing adjacent components. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and manual screwdrivers used in the field. This size is a common choice for 24-gauge to 18-gauge sheet metal work in residential and light commercial settings.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose No. 10 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge steel panels, duct work flanges, electrical enclosures, and equipment access covers commonly found in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or general mechanical contractors using a standard #2 Phillips bit in a cordless driver or manual screwdriver. Power down all electrical equipment and de-energize panels before fastening covers or enclosures. Avoid over-torquing, which can strip the thread in thin-gauge metal or crack the zinc finish. Type AB point screws do not require a pilot hole in sheet metal under approximately 18 gauge, but a pilot hole is recommended in heavier gauges to prevent material distortion.
