Value Collection SMPPI-1201250-100BX Sheet Metal Screw 100

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPPI-1201250-100BX is a No. 12 pan head sheet metal screw with a Phillips drive, sold in a box of 100. The screw measures 1-1/4 inches in length under the head and features a Type AB point for reliable thread engagement in thin sheet metal. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, this fastener is a standard choice for HVAC techs, electricians, and plumbers securing sheet metal ductwork, electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and light structural sheet metal assemblies. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface suitable for flush and near-flush applications.

These screws are commonly used in residential and light commercial construction and service work. Typical applications include fastening HVAC duct sections, securing sheet metal panels on air handlers, attaching electrical box knockouts, and general sheet metal fabrication. The Type AB point style is designed for use in light-gauge steel, aluminum, and similar thin sheet materials. The zinc finish provides adequate corrosion protection for interior and sheltered exterior installations. This box of 100 is sized for job-lot use by trade professionals.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers using a Phillips-tip bit with a power screwdriver or drill. Ensure the substrate is properly supported before driving to avoid deformation of thin sheet metal. Do not over-torque, as this can strip the thread engagement in light-gauge material. Always de-energize electrical equipment before fastening panels or enclosures.
