Value Collection R83922243 Sheet Metal Screw Pan Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R83922243 is a No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw with a Phillips drive, manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. Measuring 1 inch in length under the head, this screw is designed for fastening sheet metal components in HVAC, electrical enclosure, and light fabrication applications. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Licensed tradespeople and experienced installers rely on this fastener type when securing ductwork flanges, panel covers, equipment housings, and similar thin-gauge metal assemblies where thread-forming engagement is required.

This screw is suited for light commercial and residential trade applications involving sheet metal gauges commonly found in HVAC equipment cabinets, electrical panels, and enclosure covers. It is appropriate for use in environments where moisture exposure makes corrosion-resistant fasteners a code or specification requirement. The pan head profile provides a low-clearance, flat-bearing surface that distributes clamping load across the material face without the need for a washer in most standard applications.

Key Features

• No. 8 thread size for common sheet metal fastening applications
• 1 inch length under head for standard sheet metal panel thickness
• Pan head profile delivers a low-profile, wide-bearing clamping surface
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power and hand drivers
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in damp or outdoor-exposed installs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for No. 8 sheet metal screw applications in residential and light commercial HVAC, electrical, and fabrication work.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws should be installed by qualified tradespeople following applicable codes, including NEC requirements for electrical enclosures. Power down all equipment and de-energize panels before fastening or removing covers. Use a Phillips bit sized to the fastener head to avoid cam-out and fastener damage. Do not overtighten into thin-gauge material, as thread stripping can compromise the joint.
