Value Collection PPTCIF0-800750-100BX 8-32 Unc Screw 100

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PPTCIF0-800750-100BX is an 8-32 UNC thread cutting screw designed for securing components in light-gauge metal, sheet metal panels, and similar materials where pre-tapped threads are not present. The Type F point cuts its own mating thread on installation, eliminating the need for a separate tapping operation. The pan head profile provides a low-profile bearing surface, and the Phillips drive makes installation straightforward with standard power or hand tools. Each screw measures 3/4 inch in length under head. The Grade 2 steel construction with a zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered applications. This box contains 100 pieces and is used by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general tradespeople for panel assembly and equipment enclosure work.

These screws are commonly used in residential and light commercial applications where sheet metal panels, junction boxes, electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment cabinets, and similar thin-gauge metalwork require a fastener that forms its own thread. They are well suited for production assembly, service work, and replacement fastener situations where a standard 8-32 UNC thread cutting screw is called out. The Type F point is compatible with ferrous and light non-ferrous materials of appropriate gauge for the thread size.

Key Features

• Type F point cuts its own mating thread, no pre-tapped hole required
• 8-32 UNC thread size suits standard enclosure and panel fastening applications
• 3/4 inch length under head fits common sheet metal panel thicknesses
• Pan head profile with Phillips drive for use with standard bit tips
• Grade 2 steel with zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in sheltered environments
• Box of 100 pieces supports service van stocking and production use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 8-32 UNC thread cutting fastener suitable for light-gauge ferrous metal panels, equipment enclosures, and similar assemblies where a Type F point thread cutting screw of this size is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal mechanics during panel assembly or equipment service. A properly sized pilot hole for the thread size and material gauge should be drilled prior to driving the screw to avoid material distortion. Use a Phillips bit that seats fully in the drive recess to prevent cam-out and screw head damage. Ensure the equipment or enclosure is de-energized before fastening panels on electrical or HVAC equipment.
