Value Collection 40777 No. 8 Pan Head Sheet Metal Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 40777 is a No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw with a square drive recess, designed for fastening sheet metal, light gauge steel, and thin material assemblies. Each screw measures 1 inch in length under the head and features a Type AB point for reliable self-starting in pre-drilled or punched holes. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it resists corrosion in standard indoor and light-duty applications. This 100-piece pack suits maintenance, HVAC ductwork fabrication, electrical enclosure assembly, and general sheet metal work performed by trade professionals.

These screws are suited for residential and light commercial applications where No. 8 sheet metal fasteners are required. Common uses include securing HVAC duct flanges, attaching junction box covers, fastening equipment panels, and general-purpose thin-gauge metal assembly. The pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface and low-profile seating. The square drive reduces cam-out during high-volume installation with a standard No. 2 square bit.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw suitable for standard sheet metal fastening applications in HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a No. 2 square drive bit in a hand or power screwdriver. Pre-drill or punch a pilot hole sized to the thread diameter when working with harder gauge stock to prevent material distortion. Power down and de-energize any electrical enclosure or HVAC equipment before fastening panels or covers. Do not overtighten into thin gauge material, as stripping can compromise the connection.
