Value Collection 95571 No.8 Self Drilling Screw 5/8in 50pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 95571 is a No. 8 self drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a hex washer head and hex drive, this screw installs quickly with a standard hex driver or drill. The 5/8-inch length under head suits thin-gauge metal-to-metal and metal-to-substrate applications. Constructed from Grade 410 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance for both interior and exterior installations. This package contains 50 screws and is commonly installed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general trade contractors requiring a dependable stainless fastener.

This screw is well suited for light-gauge sheet metal work, HVAC ductwork assembly, metal framing, and similar trade applications where a self-tapping point eliminates the need for a separate drilling step. The No. 2 drill point is sized for sheet metal gauges typical in residential and light commercial construction. The hex washer head provides bearing surface coverage and resists pull-through on thin panels.

Key Features

• No. 2 drill point drills its own pilot hole in light-gauge sheet metal
• Grade 410 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• Hex washer head maximizes bearing surface and reduces panel pull-through
• Hex drive compatible with standard power drivers and hex bit sockets
• 5/8-inch length under head suits thin-gauge metal fastening applications
• Sold in a 50-count pack for jobsite convenience

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 self drilling screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, and general metal fastening applications where a No. 2 drill point and hex washer head are specified.

Installation Notes

Install with a hex driver bit and a variable-speed drill or screw gun set to an appropriate clutch torque to avoid overdriving. Ensure the workpiece is stable and secured before driving. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and load requirements. Stainless steel fasteners can be prone to galling — driving at moderate speed reduces this risk.
