Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 80212 is a No. 10 x 1.5-inch combination wood and sheet metal Phillips drive screw, sold in a 100-count pack. This dual-purpose fastener is engineered to drive cleanly into both wood substrates and light-gauge sheet metal, making it a practical choice for mixed-material assemblies. The Phillips drive head allows for consistent torque application with standard drive bits. At 16.2 pounds per package of 18 packs, the per-pack weight is manageable for jobsite use. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, carpenters, and general contractors reach for this type of fastener when securing panels, brackets, and framing components where both material types are present in the same assembly.

This screw is suited for light commercial and residential applications where a single fastener must transition between wood framing and sheet metal components. Typical install scenarios include securing HVAC equipment panels to wooden structures, attaching sheet metal brackets to wood framing, and general construction assemblies requiring a reliable dual-purpose fastener. The 100-count pack format keeps the supply accessible for both single-task jobs and ongoing service work.

Installation Notes

Install using a standard No. 2 Phillips drive bit with an appropriate drill or impact driver set to a controlled clutch setting to avoid overdriving. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwood or thicker-gauge sheet metal to prevent material splitting or thread stripping. Power down any electrical equipment and depressurize any systems before fastening near live components. Follow applicable local building codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and load requirements.
