Overview

Minerallac 70808J is a #8 x 1/2" Type 18-8 stainless steel pan head square drive sheet metal screw engineered for secure mechanical fastening in industrial, HVAC, and electrical applications. Constructed from corrosion-resistant 18-8 stainless steel (AISI 304 equivalent), this screw resists rust, oxidation, and chemical exposure, ensuring long-term reliability in outdoor, marine, and corrosive environments. The square drive recess delivers maximum torque transfer with reduced cam-out, providing a secure grip for power tools and preventing driver slippage during installation. Designed for self-tapping applications, the sharp threads eliminate pre-drilling requirements in sheet metal up to 16 gauge, streamlining assembly processes and reducing labor time. The low-profile pan head sits flush with the surface for a clean, professional finish in metal fabrication, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies. Supplied in a 100-piece jar for efficient inventory management and easy handling on job sites. Key specifications include: - Thread size: #8 - Length: 1/2 inch - Head style: Pan head - Drive type: Square drive - Material: 18-8 stainless steel (AISI 304 equivalent) - Quantity per jar: 100 pieces This screw is optimized for applications requiring corrosion resistance and secure fastening in demanding conditions. The pan head design minimizes snagging while maintaining strong pull-out resistance, making it ideal for use in HVAC systems, electrical panels, and metal fabrication projects where durability and reliability are critical.
