Description

Type AB Self Tapping Sheet Metal Screws provide fast, reliable fastening for thin metal assemblies. The pan head with square drive enables high torque transfer and secure seating in stainless environments.

Specs

  • Thread size: #8
  • Length: 3/8"
  • Drive type: Square Drive
  • Material grade: 304
  • Finish: 18/8 Stainless Steel
  • Thread type: Self tapping

Features

  • Self tapping capability: Creates mating threads in base metal during installation, enabling fast, secure assembly without pre-drilling for appropriate gauges.
  • Torque transfer: Square Drive provides high torque transmission with reduced cam-out compared to other drive styles.
  • Corrosion resistance: 304 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance in outdoor, coastal, and high-humidity environments.
  • Head seating: Pan head yields a wide bearing surface for flush seating and compatibility with adjacent components.
  • Material compatibility: Consistent stainless hardware across assemblies maintains uniform appearance and corrosion resistance.
  • Applications: Suitable for HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, appliance housings, metal cabinetry, and automotive trim assemblies.
  • Installation considerations: For typical sheet metal gauges, a pilot hole is not required; for thicker gauge, pilot drilling may improve alignment and thread formation. Avoid over-torquing to prevent stripping.
