Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0824KPO is a No. 8 oval head, Phillips drive, self-drilling screw designed for metal fastening applications in the trades. It measures 1.5 inches in overall length and features a No. 2 drill point that eliminates the need for a pilot hole. Manufactured from 1016-1024 grade steel with a zinc-plated finish, it provides corrosion resistance suitable for general indoor and light-duty outdoor use. This screw is installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors wherever sheet metal or light structural connections are required.

This self-drilling screw is used in residential and light commercial applications including HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical panel and enclosure mounting, light-gauge metal framing, and equipment attachment to metal substrates. The oval head profile seats flush with a slight dome, providing a clean appearance in visible installations. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 driver bits. This item is sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Installation Notes

This screw is installed by licensed tradespeople using a No. 2 Phillips bit in a variable-speed drill or driver. Apply consistent forward pressure to allow the drill point to engage before the threads begin to pull. Avoid over-torquing, which can strip the head or deform light-gauge material. Ensure the work material is secured before driving.
