Made from AISI 1016-1024 carbon steel and heat treated for added hardness, this screw features a zinc plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance in typical indoor and sheltered applications. The No. 2 drill point bores through light-gauge metal cleanly, while the 1\/4 inch hex drive head allows installation with a standard hex driver bit. Sold in a jar of 100 screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is suited for use in sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, metal stud framing, electrical enclosures, and general trade construction where a self-drilling fastener is required. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface that resists pull-through on thin materials. Licensed tradespeople and contractors working with light-gauge steel components will find this a standard production fastener for high-volume assembly tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 2 drill point self-drills through light-gauge steel without a pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex washer head (0.272 inches wide x 0.110 inches tall) provides broad clamping surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat-treated AISI 1016-1024 carbon steel for consistent hardness and drive performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in sheltered environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch hex drive compatible with standard magnetic hex driver bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePackaged 100 per jar for convenient jobsite use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 8-18 x 2 inch Type 2 self-drilling screw suitable for light-gauge sheet metal applications common in HVAC, electrical, and general construction trade work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall with a hex driver bit sized for a 1\/4 inch hex head using a variable-speed drill or screw gun. Apply steady, consistent pressure to allow the drill point to engage the material before the threads advance. Do not overdrive — the washer head should seat flush without crushing the base material. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing when used in structural or code-governed assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Washer Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.272 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.110 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Point\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type 2 Self Drilling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: AISI 1016-1024 Carbon Steel, Heat Treated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 per jar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PECO FASTENER\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8X2HTJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PECO FASTENER","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347943817522,"sku":"8X2HTJ","price":33.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310553486.jpg?v=1782116466","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/peco-fastener-8x2htj-self-drilling-screw-no-8-x-2-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
