Value Collection PPTCIF0-801000-100BX 8-32 Unc Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION PPTCIF0-801000-100BX is an 8-32 UNC thread cutting screw designed for reliable fastening in metal and other rigid materials. Featuring a pan head with a Phillips drive and a Type F point, this screw cuts its own mating thread on installation, eliminating the need for a pre-tapped hole in many applications. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it offers corrosion resistance suitable for general indoor mechanical and electrical assembly work. Each box contains 100 screws. Individual screw weight is approximately 0.003 pounds.

This screw is commonly used in light-gauge sheet metal, plastic enclosures, junction boxes, and equipment panels encountered in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing service work. The 8-32 UNC thread and 1-inch length under head make it a standard choice for securing access panels, brackets, and control board mounts in residential and light commercial equipment. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard Phillips-head screwdrivers and power bits widely carried by field technicians.

Key Features

• Type F point cuts threads on installation, reducing the need for pre-tapped holes in compatible materials
• 8-32 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with common fastener hardware
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load over a wider surface area
• Phillips drive works with standard field tools and power drivers
• Zinc-plated Grade 2 steel finish provides corrosion resistance for general service environments
• Sold in a box of 100 for job-site and shop stock use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose 8-32 UNC thread cutting fastener suitable for light-gauge metal, plastic panels, and enclosure assemblies typical in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting screws should be driven at controlled speed to avoid stripping the newly formed threads in the base material. Power down any electrical panel or equipment before opening enclosures or replacing fasteners near energized components. Use a properly sized Phillips driver bit to prevent cam-out and head damage. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines when fastening within electrical enclosures.
