Evco evco-8x2tpw250 Taper Point Screw 8x2in White 250ct

Product Description

The EVCO evco-8x2tpw250 is a No. 8 x 2-inch taper point screw with a hex washer head and slotted drive, supplied in a 250-count pack. The taper point tip is designed for self-starting penetration into sheet metal, plastic panels, and similar substrates common in HVAC equipment fabrication and installation. The zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance, and the white painted finish blends with light-colored panels and equipment casings. These screws are a standard fastener for trade professionals assembling or servicing HVAC enclosures, ductwork, and related mechanical equipment.

This fastener is suited for light-gauge sheet metal work, equipment panel attachment, and cabinet assembly in residential and commercial HVAC applications. The hex washer head allows for fast installation with a hex driver or nut driver, which is standard in field service kits. The 250-count pack is sized for service vans and installation crews with moderate to high fastener volume needs.

Key Features

• Taper point tip for self-starting penetration without pre-drilling in thin sheet metal
• Hex washer head with slotted drive accepts both hex nut drivers and flathead drivers
• Zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance in mechanical room environments
• White painted finish for low-visibility blending on light-colored equipment panels
• 250-count pack suitable for installation crews and service van stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose fastener for light-gauge sheet metal panels, HVAC equipment enclosures, and mechanical cabinet assembly where a No. 8 x 2-inch taper point screw is specified.

Installation Notes

These screws are installed by HVAC technicians and sheet metal workers using a standard hex nut driver or flathead screwdriver. Power down all electrical equipment and de-energize panels before fastening near live components. Avoid overdriving, which can strip thin-gauge sheet metal or crack plastic panels. Follow applicable mechanical and sheet metal codes for fastener spacing and panel attachment requirements.
