Value Collection R58005164 No. 8 Flat Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005164 is a No. 8 flat head slotted sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. At 0.5 inches overall length, this screw is suited for light-duty fastening in sheet metal assemblies, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-material applications. Grade 316 stainless steel provides strong resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it appropriate for environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The flat head profile sits flush with the mating surface when driven fully, and the slotted drive is compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and bit sets common on any service truck.

This screw is a standard fastener used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general sheet metal work. Typical applications include securing sheet metal panels, junction box covers, duct flanges, and other thin-gauge metal components. The No. 8 diameter and 0.5-inch length make this screw a frequent choice for light sheet metal gauges where a compact, flush-seating fastener is required. These are sold in multiples of 100 per order.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in wet or chemical-exposed environments
• Flat head profile seats flush with the work surface for clean, low-profile installations
• Slotted drive accepts standard flathead screwdrivers and power bits
• No. 8 thread size with 0.5-inch overall length for light sheet metal gauges
• Uncoated finish — no plating that can chip, peel, or introduce contamination

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 flat head sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge sheet metal fastening applications across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a standard flathead screwdriver or slotted bit driver. Always pilot-drill or use a self-tapping technique appropriate to the gauge of the sheet metal being fastened. De-energize any electrical enclosure or system before accessing panels secured with these screws. Avoid over-driving, which can strip the slotted head or deform thin sheet metal.
