Electrolux 316021105 Hex Head Screw 8-18

Product Description

The ELECTROLUX 316021105 is a hex head self-tapping screw used as a fastener in Electrolux home appliances. Sized at 8-18, this cup-point screw is designed to thread into sheet metal and similar materials during assembly or service. Its hex head allows for standard socket or nut driver installation. Licensed appliance technicians and experienced service personnel use this part during disassembly and reassembly of appliance enclosures, panels, and internal components. Stocking the correct OEM fastener ensures proper fit and thread engagement without the risk of stripping or mismatch that can come from using generic hardware substitutes.

This screw is used across Electrolux home appliance platforms, including freezer and refrigeration units. It serves as a structural or panel-retention fastener in applications where a self-tapping hex head screw is specified by the manufacturer. Appliance service technicians will encounter this fastener when servicing cabinets, access panels, and component mounting points in Electrolux-branded equipment.

Key Features

• Hex head drive accepts standard nut drivers and socket wrenches for quick installation
• Cup point tip is designed to bite and self-tap into sheet metal without a pre-tapped hole
• OEM Electrolux part number ensures correct thread pitch and head geometry for original equipment
• Suitable for panel fastening, component mounting, and enclosure assembly in appliance service

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM replacement fastener for Electrolux home appliances, including freezer and home appliance models that use an 8-18 hex head cup-point self-tapping screw.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified appliance technician. Always disconnect the appliance from its power source before beginning any service work involving panel removal or internal access. Use a properly sized nut driver to avoid rounding the hex head. Do not overtighten, as self-tapping screws in sheet metal can strip the material if excessive torque is applied.
