Measuring 0.5 inches in length under the head, this fastener is designed for securing sheet metal panels, brackets, ductwork, and light-gauge metal assemblies. Grade 18-8 stainless steel provides solid corrosion resistance, making it suitable for both interior and exterior applications where moisture exposure is a concern. The pan head profile sits low and distributes clamping load across a wide bearing surface, which helps prevent pull-through in thin-gauge material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis screw is used in a wide range of trade applications including HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, light sheet metal framing, and general mechanical assembly. The slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers and compatible power driver bits, making it accessible with common jobsite tooling. It is appropriate for residential and light commercial work wherever a corrosion-resistant, reusable fastener is needed in thin metal substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo. 8 thread size suitable for light-gauge sheet metal panels and brackets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePan head style provides a wide bearing surface to reduce pull-through risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade drivers and bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5 inch length under head for shallow-depth fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 8 pan head slotted sheet metal screw for general light-gauge metal fabrication and assembly applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eSheet metal screws are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal fabricators using a flat-blade screwdriver or matching power driver bit. Ensure the receiving material is properly supported and pre-drilled or self-tapped as required by the application. Avoid overtightening, as stainless steel fasteners are susceptible to galling when driven at high torque without lubrication. Follow applicable mechanical codes for fastener spacing and edge distance in structural or pressure-rated assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 18-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: R63648248\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721864085810,"sku":"R63648248","price":1446.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9ae4e8c3933d3ccee5262a229972fa93.jpg?v=1788582125","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-r63648248-sheet-metal-screw-8-pan-head","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
