Value Collection R58005238 No.8 Flat Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005238 is a No. 8 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. At 3/4 inches overall length, this fastener is designed for sheet metal joining and light fabrication tasks where corrosion resistance is a primary concern. Grade 316 stainless steel provides superior resistance to chlorides and harsh environments compared to standard 18-8 grades, making it a reliable choice for marine, coastal, and chemical-exposure applications. HVAC technicians, plumbers, sheet metal workers, and general contractors install this type of fastener in ductwork, enclosures, brackets, and equipment panels.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial sheet metal assembly work, including HVAC duct connections, electrical enclosure fabrication, and structural sheet metal attachments. The flat head profile sits flush with or countersunk into the material surface, keeping clearances tight in panel and enclosure applications. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and manual screwdrivers, which are common on any service or fabrication truck. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 units per package.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion and chloride resistance
• Flat head profile allows flush or countersunk seating in sheet metal panels
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power and hand drivers
• 3/4 inch overall length suits light-gauge sheet metal applications
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional accuracy for tight-tolerance fits
• No. 8 thread size is a standard gauge in HVAC and light fabrication work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 Phillips flat head sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies across HVAC, electrical, and general fabrication applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by qualified sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers as appropriate to the assembly. Pre-drilling or self-tapping into the workpiece should follow the material thickness and gauge requirements of the application. Ensure the drive bit size matches the Phillips recess to avoid cam-out and head damage. Corrosion-resistant fasteners like Grade 316 stainless should not be mixed with dissimilar metals in assemblies where galvanic corrosion is a concern.
