Value Collection SMSPI0-80075B0-100BX Sheet Metal Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SMSPI0-80075B0-100BX is a No. 8 pan head sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin-gauge sheet metal, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar light-gauge assemblies. The Phillips drive accepts standard No. 2 Phillips bits for quick installation with a power driver or hand screwdriver. At 0.75 inches in length under head, this screw is sized for shallow material stacks common in HVAC cabinet work, electrical boxes, and light structural sheet metal applications. The Type B point provides a tapered, coarse-threaded tip that self-pierces pre-drilled or punched pilot holes without requiring a separate tapping step. Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish offers baseline corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and protected outdoor installations. Each order ships as a box of 100 screws.

This screw is a standard fastener used across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trades wherever thin sheet metal panels, covers, or brackets need to be secured quickly and reliably. Typical applications include securing furnace and air handler access panels, attaching ductwork flanges, fastening electrical enclosure covers, and assembling light-gauge steel components. The pan head profile sits flat against the material surface and distributes clamping load evenly, making it well suited for panels where a low-profile head is preferred over a hex washer or truss head style.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 8 Type B pan head sheet metal screw suitable for use in thin-gauge steel panels, HVAC equipment enclosures, electrical boxes, and similar light-gauge sheet metal assemblies requiring a Phillips-drive fastener.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers as part of routine equipment assembly and service work. Always pre-drill or punch a correctly sized pilot hole for Type B point screws to prevent material distortion in thin-gauge stock. Use a No. 2 Phillips bit and set driver clutch torque conservatively to avoid stripping the head or over-driving through thin material. Follow applicable codes such as the NEC or SMACNA guidelines for fastener spacing and panel attachment requirements.
