Value Collection R55000076 No. 8 Self Drilling Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R55000076 is a No. 8 self drilling screw designed for fast, reliable fastening without a pre-drilled pilot hole. Featuring a flat head profile and Phillips drive, it countersinks flush with the work surface for a clean finish. The overall length is 0.5 inches, and the screw is tipped with a No. 2 drill point for efficient material penetration. Constructed from Grade 410 stainless steel, it offers solid corrosion resistance for both indoor and outdoor applications. Electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general tradespeople use this fastener wherever a flush-mount, self-starting screw is required.

This screw is well suited for light-gauge sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, access panels, and similar thin-material assemblies. The flat head design makes it a preferred choice when a low-profile or flush surface is needed. The short 0.5-inch overall length targets thin stock where longer fasteners would bottom out or protrude. Sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, this screw is intended for shop stock, service van inventory, or job-site replenishment.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose self drilling fastener suitable for light-gauge sheet metal, thin panels, and similar thin-material applications common in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing service work.

Installation Notes

Self drilling screws do not require a pre-drilled pilot hole but perform best when driven at consistent, moderate speed with a power screwdriver or drill to avoid stripping the Phillips drive. Secure or de-energize any equipment before fastening near electrical components or live panels. Use the correct No. 2 Phillips bit to maintain proper engagement and prevent cam-out. Follow applicable NEC or local mechanical code requirements when fastening enclosures or equipment panels.
