Hillman Fasteners 823262 Sheet Metal Screw No.8 X 0.75 in 100PK

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 823262 is a stainless steel pan head sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in light-gauge metal applications. Sized at No. 8 x 0.75 inches with a Phillips drive, these screws deliver consistent pull-through resistance and corrosion resistance in both indoor and outdoor environments. Sold in a 100-count box, the 823262 is a staple stock item for HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general contractors who need reliable fasteners on every job. The stainless steel construction resists rust and chemical exposure, making these screws suitable for equipment panels, duct work, junction boxes, and similar sheet metal assemblies.

These screws are appropriate for light commercial and residential installations where sheet metal fastening is required. Common applications include securing HVAC cabinet panels, electrical enclosures, ductwork flanges, and thin-gauge metal trim. The No. 8 diameter and 0.75-inch length make them well-suited for situations where material thickness is limited and a low-profile pan head is needed to avoid interference with adjacent components. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers commonly found in any trade kit.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments
• Pan head profile keeps a low profile and distributes clamping load across sheet metal surfaces
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and hand drivers
• No. 8 x 0.75-inch size suits thin-gauge sheet metal panels and enclosures
• 100-count pack reduces restocking frequency on active job sites

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for light-gauge sheet metal applications across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or general contractors using a No. 2 Phillips bit on a power driver or hand screwdriver. Always de-energize electrical panels and HVAC equipment before fastening or removing screws on live enclosures. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder or thicker gauge metal reduces the risk of stripping the drive or cracking the material. Follow applicable NEC or IFGC guidelines when fastening components within electrical or mechanical systems.
