Hillman Fasteners 823288 Sheet Metal Screw 10x3/4 100pk

Product Description

The HILLMAN FASTENERS 823288 is a stainless steel sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in metal-to-metal and metal-to-substrate applications. Sized at No. 10 x 3/4 inches with a Phillips drive and pan head profile, this screw delivers a low-profile, flush-friendly installation across a wide range of field and shop tasks. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion, making it well suited for outdoor, humid, or chemically exposed environments. Each box contains 100 screws, providing enough quantity for production runs or repetitive service calls. HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and general trade professionals keep these on hand for panel fastening, ductwork assembly, and electrical enclosure work.

This screw is used across residential and light commercial applications wherever a No. 10 sheet metal screw is required. Common install scenarios include securing HVAC access panels, attaching junction box covers, fastening sheet metal ductwork components, and general utility fastening on equipment frames. The pan head style distributes clamping load over a wider surface area than flat or oval head designs, reducing the risk of pull-through on thinner gauge metal stock. Stainless construction makes these appropriate for coastal, rooftop, or high-moisture service environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• No. 10 x 3/4 inches size — common trade standard for panel and enclosure fastening
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power drivers and hand tools
• Pan head profile provides broad bearing surface and low-profile installation
• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in humid or outdoor environments
• 100-piece pack quantity supports production work and service van stocking

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 10 x 3/4 inch pan head sheet metal screw suitable for general trade fastening in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and related applications where a Phillips drive stainless sheet metal screw of this size is specified.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors using a No. 2 Phillips bit with a power driver or hand screwdriver. Always de-energize electrical panels and HVAC equipment before opening covers or replacing fasteners. Avoid overtorquing, which can strip the thread engagement in thin-gauge sheet metal. Follow applicable NEC, IFGC, or local mechanical codes when reassembling equipment enclosures or access panels.
