Value Collection R58005034 Sheet Metal Screw 8 Pan Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005034 is a number 8 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, brackets, ductwork, and enclosures in HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication applications. Manufactured from grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this screw delivers strong corrosion resistance in wet, coastal, and chemically exposed environments. The Phillips drive pan head provides a low-profile bearing surface and is compatible with standard Phillips bits and power drivers. The length under head measures 1.5 inches, making it suitable for moderate-depth fastening through sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar substrates.

This screw is commonly used by HVAC technicians securing sheet metal duct sections, access panels, and equipment enclosures. Electricians and panel fabricators also use this fastener for grounding straps, junction box covers, and control panel assemblies. The grade 316 stainless material is preferred in outdoor, coastal, food-service, and industrial settings where standard steel fasteners would corrode prematurely. Sold in minimum quantities of 50 units per order.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments
• Pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface and clean finished appearance
• Phillips drive compatible with standard bits and power screwdrivers
• 1.5-inch length under head for reliable engagement in moderate-depth sheet metal applications
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and avoids coating delamination
• Number 8 thread size is a common standard for sheet metal fastening across trades

Compatibility

Designed as a standard number 8 sheet metal screw suitable for use in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light-gauge sheet metal fabrication applications where a pan head Phillips fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and metal fabricators using a Phillips-tip bit in a manual or powered driver. De-energize any electrical equipment and shut off HVAC systems before fastening panels or covers. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in thicker-gauge material reduces drive torque and prevents sheet distortion. Do not over-torque, as excessive drive force can strip the thread engagement in thin sheet metal.
