Value Collection SPTCIF02501250-100BX 1/4-20 Thread Cutting Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SPTCIF02501250-100BX is a 1/4-20 UNC slotted pan head thread cutting screw designed for fastening into pre-drilled or tapped holes in metal and similar materials. Measuring 1-1/4 inches in length under the head, this screw features a Type F point, which cuts its own mating thread as it is driven, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole in many thin-metal applications. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance, this fastener is a standard choice for light- to medium-duty assembly tasks across HVAC, electrical, and mechanical trades. Sold in a box of 100.

This screw is suited for use in sheet metal enclosures, equipment panels, junction boxes, duct assemblies, and similar light-gauge metal fabrication and repair work. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface with a wide, flat top that seats flush against thin material without countersinking. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. These fasteners are commonly used by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical contractors during equipment installation and service.

Key Features

• 1/4-20 UNC thread size with Type F point for self-tapping into pre-drilled holes in light-gauge metal
• 1-1/4 inch length under head suits moderate-depth fastening in panels and enclosures
• Pan head profile with slotted drive for flat-blade screwdriver installation
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for light- to medium-duty applications
• Zinc-plated finish offers baseline corrosion resistance in indoor environments
• Sold in a box of 100 for job-site and shop stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-20 UNC thread cutting fastener suitable for use in light-gauge steel panels, equipment enclosures, and mechanical assemblies requiring a pan head slotted screw with a Type F point.

Installation Notes

Install with an appropriate flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit matched to the screw head recess. Ensure the receiving material is pre-drilled to the recommended pilot hole diameter for Type F thread cutting screws in the applicable material thickness. Do not overtorque, as Grade 2 steel screws in thin-gauge material can strip the formed thread. Disconnect and lock out power to any electrical enclosure or equipment before fastening into live panels.
