- Finish: Stainless (18/8)
- Drive type: Phillips
- Material grade: 304 Stainless Steel (18/8)
- Thread type: Type AB Self Tapping
Features
- Self-tapping: Type AB threads form mating threads in sheet metal during installation, enabling fast, tool-assisted assembly without pre-drilled holes.
- Corrosion resistance: 304 Stainless Steel (18/8) provides high resistance to rust and chemical exposure, suitable for indoor and outdoor environments.
- Pan head: Broad bearing surface distributes load and provides a flush, low-profile finish that minimizes snag hazards.
- Phillips drive: Compatible with standard PH screwdrivers and power bits, offering reliable torque transfer and reduced cam-out in stainless fasteners.
- Material compatibility and applications: Ideal for metal-to-metal assemblies in enclosures, chassis, control panels, HVAC ductwork, and cabinetry where corrosion resistance is required.
- Bulk efficiency: Pack of 5,000 screws supports high-volume manufacturing, bulk procurement, and large-scale repairs.
- Thread geometry and mounting considerations: Type AB thread geometry delivers strong engagement in light to moderate sheet metal thickness; for harder metals, consider pilot holes to ensure clean engagement and prevent thread stripping.
