The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or slotted bit. At 0.5 inches in length under the head, this screw is suited for shallow-material applications where a short fastener is required. The self-piercing point eliminates the need for a pilot hole in light-gauge sheet metal. Finished in zinc for basic corrosion resistance, the steel construction provides reliable holding strength in dry indoor installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is commonly used in HVAC duct fabrication and assembly, electrical enclosure work, and general sheet metal fastening tasks. Typical applications include securing sheet metal panels, attaching duct covers, fastening electrical box knockouts, and other light-gauge metal joining work encountered in residential and commercial mechanical and electrical installations. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface and allows both a hex-driver and slotted bit to be used, offering flexibility in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelf-piercing point drives into light-gauge sheet metal without a pre-drilled pilot hole\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex washer head accepts a hex driver or flat-blade slotted bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction delivers consistent thread engagement in sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.5-inch length under head suits shallow-material fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 8 thread size is a standard gauge for HVAC and sheet metal work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 8 sheet metal screw for use with light-gauge steel panels, ductwork, and enclosures common in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trade applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers as part of duct assembly, panel fastening, and enclosure work. No pilot hole is required for light-gauge material due to the self-piercing point; for heavier gauges, pre-drilling may be necessary. Use a properly sized slotted bit or hex driver to avoid cam-out and head damage. Follow applicable local mechanical and electrical codes for fastener requirements in specific assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Self Piercing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161506\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: C52000436\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51704701223218,"sku":"C52000436","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4c5a19bdd30efaf4411d4836e07fc333.jpg?v=1788424472","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-c52000436-no-8-hex-washer-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
