Value Collection R58005026 Sheet Metal Screw 8 Pan Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005026 is a No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal and thin-material assemblies in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general trade applications. Machined from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this screw offers strong corrosion resistance in wet, coastal, and chemically exposed environments. The Phillips drive pan head provides a low-profile bearing surface and works with standard power drivers. Length under head measures 5/8 inches. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per package, making it practical for job-site stock and service van inventory.

This screw is suited for light-gauge sheet metal work across residential and commercial trade applications. Common uses include ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fastening, equipment panels, and mechanical equipment housings. The Grade 316 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for outdoor installations, coastal climates, pool equipment enclosures, and any environment where standard carbon steel hardware would corrode prematurely. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wider surface area, reducing the risk of pull-through on thinner gauge material.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh and wet environments
• No. 8 thread size with 5/8 inch length under head for light-gauge sheet metal fastening
• Pan head profile provides wide bearing surface and low-profile sit
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency at the drive recess
• Sold in 100-piece minimum quantity for trade-volume use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge metal fastening applications across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and pool equipment service work.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general trade mechanics using standard Phillips-head screwdrivers or power drivers. Ensure the workpiece is secured and power is disconnected before fastening panels or enclosures on live equipment. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in heavier gauge stock to prevent material distortion and reduce drive cam-out. Follow applicable mechanical codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and torque practices.
