Value Collection SMPPI0-800620-100BX Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMPPI0-800620-100BX is a No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw with a Phillips drive and Type AB point. It is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance in typical indoor and light-duty applications. The screw measures 5/8 inches in length under the head. Sheet metal screws of this type are used across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general sheet metal fabrication work. The Type AB point is a spaced-thread, gimlet-point design that self-starts in light-gauge sheet metal and pre-drilled pilot holes without requiring a separate tapping step. This box contains 100 pieces.

This fastener is suited for attaching light-gauge sheet metal panels, ductwork components, electrical enclosures, junction box covers, and similar thin-metal assemblies. HVAC technicians commonly use this screw size when securing duct sections, access panels, and sheet metal flanges. Electricians use comparable screws for securing conduit straps and enclosure covers. The pan head profile provides a wide bearing surface and low-profile head that sits flush against thin materials without punching through.

Key Features

• No. 8 thread size with 5/8 inch length under head for light-gauge sheet metal applications
• Type AB point self-starts in pre-drilled or punched pilot holes in thin sheet metal
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load across a wide bearing surface
• Phillips drive compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits and power drivers
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected installations
• Sold in a 100-piece box for jobsite or shop use

Compatibility

Designed for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies typical of HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal fabrication where a No. 8 pan head Phillips Type AB sheet metal screw is specified.

Installation Notes

A licensed or experienced trade professional should select the correct pilot hole diameter for the gauge of material being fastened before driving these screws. Use a No. 2 Phillips bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Do not overtighten — sheet metal screws in thin-gauge material can strip or pull through if torque is excessive. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards or NEC enclosure requirements when fastening in regulated assemblies.
