Value Collection SMSFI0-801500-100BX Size 8 Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMSFI0-801500-100BX is a No. 8 flat head slotted sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish. It measures 1.5 inches in overall length and is designed for fastening sheet metal panels, ductwork, and light-gauge metal components. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface, making it suitable for applications where a low-profile fastener is required. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or bit. These screws are sold in a box of 100 units, making them practical for volume fastening tasks on HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal work.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC duct assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, and sheet metal panel installation. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and light-duty applications. Tradespeople working on air handler cabinets, junction boxes, and light-gauge metal framing will find this a standard consumable fastener for everyday field work. The Grade 2 steel construction provides adequate shear and tensile strength for typical sheet metal gauges encountered in residential and light commercial applications.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 flat head slotted sheet metal screw for use in residential and light commercial sheet metal assembly, HVAC ductwork, and electrical enclosure applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a flat-blade screwdriver or a slotted bit in a power driver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder or thicker gauge material helps prevent sheet metal distortion and reduces cam-out risk. Do not overtighten, as excessive torque can strip the sheet metal threads or deform thin panels. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA duct construction standards or NEC requirements when fastening electrical enclosures.
