Value Collection STHCR1030 No.10 Self Drilling Screw 3/4in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION STHCR1030 is a No. 10 self drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without the need for a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a hex washer head with a hex drive, this screw seats flush and distributes load across the washer face for a secure, tight fit. The 3/4-inch length under head suits thin-gauge material applications where controlled penetration depth matters. Constructed from Grade 410 stainless steel, it offers corrosion resistance suitable for moderate-exposure environments. Tradespeople in HVAC, electrical, and general construction use this screw type when securing sheet metal panels, brackets, and light structural components.

This screw is suited for light to medium gauge sheet metal and similar substrates common in HVAC equipment enclosures, electrical panels, and metal framing assemblies. The No. 2 drill point is appropriate for material thicknesses typically encountered in residential and light commercial applications. The hex washer head and hex drive combination allows for power-tool installation with a standard 5/16-inch hex driver bit, improving installation speed on production or service work.

Key Features

• No. 10 size with No. 2 drill point for self-tapping into light-gauge metal without a pilot hole
• Hex washer head distributes clamping load and resists pull-through
• Hex drive accepts standard 5/16-inch power driver bits for fast installation
• Grade 410 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in moderate-exposure environments
• 3/4-inch length under head suits thin sheet metal and panel fastening applications
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard trade fastener tooling

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service-stock fastener for light-gauge sheet metal applications in HVAC, electrical enclosure, and light commercial metal assembly work.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a power drill or screw gun fitted with a 5/16-inch hex driver bit. De-energize any electrical equipment and relieve system pressure before fastening near live components or pressurized lines. Do not overdrive self drilling screws, as excess torque can strip the formed thread or crack the drill point. Follow applicable local building codes and manufacturer panel assembly requirements when selecting fastener quantity and spacing.
