Value Collection R63614023 No. 8 Flat Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63614023 is a No. 8 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar light-gauge sheet metal assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, this screw resists corrosion in wet, coastal, and chemically active environments where carbon steel fasteners would deteriorate. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface when fully driven, eliminating protrusions that could interfere with adjacent components or mating panels. At 1.75 inches overall length, it provides solid thread engagement in standard sheet metal gauges commonly encountered in HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication work.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial applications including HVAC duct assembly, electrical panel and enclosure fabrication, metal roofing accessories, and general sheet metal repair. It is installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a standard No. 2 Phillips driver bit. The Grade 18-8 stainless construction makes it a preferred choice in humid or corrosion-prone environments such as rooftop equipment, outdoor enclosures, and coastal installations.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction provides strong corrosion resistance
• Flat head profile sits flush with surface for clean, low-profile fastening
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 driver bits and power tools
• 1.75-inch overall length suits typical sheet metal gauges
• No. 8 thread size is a widely used standard in sheet metal and enclosure work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge metal fastening applications typical in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal fabrication.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips driver bit, either manual or power-driven. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in thicker gauges reduces the risk of material distortion and improves thread engagement. Confirm the base metal gauge is appropriate for this screw length and thread size before driving. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards or NEC requirements for enclosure fastening where relevant.
