The Type AB point self-starts in pre-punched or pre-drilled holes, reducing installation time. The dual-drive pan head accepts both a slotted blade and a Phillips driver, giving installers flexibility in the field. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor mechanical environments. The 3\/4-inch length is measured under the head, making it well-suited for thin-material assemblies where precise penetration depth matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is a standard fastener used across residential and light commercial work. HVAC technicians reach for size 8 pan head sheet metal screws when assembling ductwork flanges, securing electrical enclosures, attaching access panels, and fastening equipment covers. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface than a hex washer head in confined spaces, making it a practical choice wherever a low-profile fastener is needed on sheet stock. Sold in multiples of 50 to support job-site and shop stocking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType AB point self-starts in pre-punched or drilled sheet metal without a pilot tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlotted Phillips dual-drive pan head accepts both blade and Phillips drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for light-gauge fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in typical indoor mechanical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch length under head suits thin-material and layered sheet metal assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInch measurement system; size 8 thread diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose OEM-style replacement and stock fastener for light-gauge sheet metal assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSheet metal screws are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical tradespeople. Ensure the workpiece is de-energized and secured before fastening near electrical components. Use the correct Phillips or slotted driver bit sized to the number 8 pan head to avoid cam-out and head damage. Do not overdrive — pan head sheet metal screws seat fully when the head makes flush, even contact with the material surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pan\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted Phillips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type AB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 (minimum order 50)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 38721\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721321152818,"sku":"38721","price":18.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c9f9ef2b3a963162636ac318db890912.jpg?v=1788576425","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-38721-size-8-pan-head-sheet-metal-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
