Import SMPPI0-800500-100BX-OLD No. 8 Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The IMPORT SMPPI0-800500-100BX-OLD is a No. 8 Phillips drive sheet metal screw with a 0.5 inch length under head, sold in a box of 100. This fastener is designed for securing sheet metal panels, brackets, and light-gauge metal components in a wide range of trade applications. The Phillips drive allows for fast installation with standard power tools. At 0.5 inches in length, this screw is suited for thin-gauge material stack-ups where a shorter fastener is required. The inch-system threading conforms to standard No. 8 sizing, making it straightforward to source matching drivers and pilot bits.

This screw sees use across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general sheet metal work. Common applications include securing duct covers, electrical enclosure panels, junction box covers, access panels, and equipment housings. The short 0.5 inch length is particularly practical when fastening thin sheet metal to a metal substrate without risking interference or blowthrough on the reverse side. Packaged in a quantity of 100, this box suits service vans, shop stock, and job-site replenishment.

Key Features

• No. 8 thread size in inch-system sizing for compatibility with standard drivers and pilot tooling
• 0.5 inch length under head suited for thin sheet metal applications
• Phillips drive for use with common power screwdrivers and manual drivers
• Box quantity of 100 supports bulk stocking and repetitive fastening tasks
• Lightweight construction at approximately 0.01 pounds per unit

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose No. 8 Phillips drive sheet metal screw for use in standard inch-system sheet metal fastening applications across HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general sheet metal workers. A pilot hole sized to the No. 8 thread minor diameter is recommended to prevent material distortion in thin-gauge stock. Use a Phillips driver bit matched to the screw head size to avoid cam-out. Ensure the mating material is secure and supported before driving to prevent panel deflection.
