Value Collection 999015 No.8 Oval Phillips Sheet Metal Screw 25pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 999015 is a No. 8 oval head Phillips sheet metal screw with a 3/4-inch length under head, manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel. Grade 316 stainless offers superior corrosion resistance compared to 304-series stainless, making it a dependable choice in wet, coastal, or chemically exposed environments. The oval head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance where the fastener is visible on the final assembly. Sold in packs of 25, this screw is suited for light-gauge sheet metal fabrication, HVAC duct work, electrical enclosures, and general trade applications where corrosion resistance is a priority.

This screw is commonly used by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general trade contractors for fastening sheet metal panels, access doors, junction box covers, and similar light-gauge assemblies. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers, making it practical for field use. The 3/4-inch under-head length suits thin-to-medium gauge sheet metal applications where thread engagement and pull-out resistance matter. Grade 316 stainless construction makes these screws appropriate for outdoor installations, marine environments, pool equipment enclosures, and other corrosive settings.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified trade professional using an appropriate Phillips-bit driver set to the correct clutch torque to avoid stripping the head or fastener threads. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended when working with heavier-gauge sheet metal to prevent material distortion. Ensure the mating sheet metal panels are properly aligned and clamped before driving fasteners. De-energize any electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC or OSHA lockout-tagout procedures when fastening electrical enclosures or panel covers.
