Value Collection 74216029 No.8 Pan Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 74216029 is a No. 8 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar light-gauge sheet metal assemblies. At 0.5 inches in length under head, this screw is suited for shallow material stacks where a compact fastener is required. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance, it is a standard consumable stocked by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers for everyday service and installation tasks. The package contains 50 screws.

This screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications where sheet metal panels, covers, and brackets must be secured quickly and reliably. Typical install scenarios include ductwork assembly, electrical panel cover attachment, HVAC cabinet fastening, and general light-gauge metal fabrication. The Phillips drive allows use with standard power drivers, making it efficient for repetitive fastening tasks on the job site or in the shop.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by qualified HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers following applicable codes such as SMACNA standards and the NEC for electrical enclosures. Pre-drill or use a self-tapping technique appropriate to the material gauge before driving. Ensure fastener length is appropriate for the combined material thickness to avoid over-penetration. Use a properly fitted Phillips bit to prevent cam-out and fastener head damage.
