It features a Type AB point for self-starting in pre-drilled or punched sheet metal without requiring a separate tapping operation. Manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, this screw resists corrosion in typical indoor service environments. The overall length is 3\/8 inches. Sold in boxes of 100, this fastener is a standard supply item for HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, electricians, and general trade professionals who work regularly with light-gauge metal assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a flush, countersunk seating profile is required. The flat head design seats flush with or slightly below the metal surface, making it appropriate for panels, junction boxes, equipment housings, and duct connections where protruding fastener heads would interfere with fit or finish. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits used on power drivers and manual screwdrivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 8 thread size for reliable grip in light-gauge sheet metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eType AB point self-starts in pre-drilled or punched holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat head profile seats flush for clean panel and enclosure installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePhillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 bits and power drivers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc finish provides corrosion resistance for typical indoor service environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for consistent hardness and thread integrity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for light-gauge sheet metal applications including HVAC ductwork panels, electrical enclosures, and equipment housings requiring a No. 8 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw with a 3\/8 inch overall length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by HVAC sheet metal technicians, electricians, and general trade professionals using a No. 2 Phillips bit on a power driver or manual screwdriver. Pre-drill or punch the sheet metal to the appropriate pilot hole diameter before driving to avoid material distortion and ensure proper thread engagement. Do not overdrive; flat head screws can crack or deform thin metal if seated with excessive torque. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA standards for duct assembly fastener spacing when used in HVAC ductwork applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Phillips\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type AB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 100 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0018 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161506\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: SMPFI0-800370-100BX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51709115203890,"sku":"SMPFI0-800370-100BX","price":742.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/254d3eec71af06997a814dd94296db49.jpg?v=1788451506","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-smpfi0-800370-100bx-no-8-flat-head-sheet-metal-screw","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
