Description
Type B Self Tapping Sheet Metal Screws with Pan Head and Phillips Drive are engineered for fast, reliable fastening into thin sheet metal. The steel construction features a Black Oxide finish for durability and a nominal diameter of #2 with a length of 1/4 inch, suitable for low-profile assemblies.
Specs
- Nominal Diameter: #2
- Length: 1/4 inch
- Finish: Black Oxide
- Drive Type: Phillips
- Material Grade: Steel
- Thread Type: Type B self tapping
Features
- Self tapping capability: Enables installation directly into sheet metal without pre-tapping holes, simplifying assembly for thin sheets and reducing tool time.
- Pan Head: Provides a broad bearing surface and a flush, low-profile finish that resists snagging in enclosed assemblies.
- Phillips Drive: Cross-slot design supports standard drivers, improving seating reliability and reducing cam-out in typical installation torque.
- Black Oxide Finish: Offers uniform appearance and modest corrosion resistance in indoor environments; compatible with other black oxide hardware.
- Material: Steel provides general purpose strength and structural integrity for sheet metal fastening.
- Typical Applications: Electrical enclosures, automotive trim, HVAC duct connections, and appliance housings where a self tapping, pan head fastener is advantageous.
- Installation Considerations: Use appropriate torque to prevent over-tightening; lubrication can aid drive in tougher metals; align holes and screw axis to minimize cross-threading.
