Value Collection LSPRI0-800500-100B Self Drilling Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LSPRI0-800500-100B is a No. 8-18 self drilling screw with a lath head profile and Phillips drive, sold in a minimum quantity of 100 pieces. Constructed from steel with a zinc-plated finish, this fastener is designed for light-gauge sheet metal and lath applications where a pre-drilled pilot hole is not required. The No. 2 drill point bores through material on contact, reducing installation steps and improving throughput on production or repetitive fastening tasks. Overall length is 0.5 inches. The zinc coating provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for interior and protected exterior environments.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial construction tasks including attaching metal lath to steel framing, securing thin sheet metal panels, and similar light-gauge metal-to-metal or metal-to-substrate applications. The lath head geometry seats flush against metal lath without deforming the surrounding material. Phillips drive is compatible with standard screw guns and cordless drill drivers common on job sites. The 100-piece minimum order quantity makes this fastener practical for contractors stocking hardware for ongoing projects.

Key Features

• No. 8-18 thread size for reliable engagement in light-gauge steel and metal lath
• No. 2 drill point eliminates the need for a pilot hole
• Lath head profile distributes clamping load across metal lath without distortion
• Phillips drive compatible with standard #2 Phillips bits and screw guns
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance for interior applications
• Sold in increments of 100 pieces for job-site convenience

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use fastener for light-gauge steel framing and metal lath applications typical in residential and commercial interior construction.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by carpenters, lathers, or general construction trades using a cordless drill driver or screw gun fitted with a No. 2 Phillips bit. Verify substrate gauge compatibility before driving to avoid stripping the drill point. Do not overdrive — seat the lath head flush to the surface without countersinking into the lath wire. Follow applicable building code fastener schedules for lath attachment spacing.
