Metallics TP706SRC – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size and type of screw is the Metallics TP706SRC?
It's a #8 x 1 inch sheet metal screw (SMS) in 18-8 stainless steel, sold 100 pieces to a box and made in the USA. The #8 diameter with a 1 inch length is the common range for fastening light-gauge sheet metal, boxes, covers, and straps.
2) Is the TP706SRC screw stainless steel and will it hold up outdoors or in damp locations?
The TP706SRC is 18-8 stainless, the austenitic grade (roughly 18% chromium, 8% nickel) used where plain or zinc-plated steel would rust. That makes it a reasonable choice for damp interior locations, wet-location enclosures, and general exterior work. For coastal salt exposure, buyers typically step up to a 316 stainless fastener instead.
3) Can I use a #8 x 1 inch sheet metal screw like the TP706SRC in a pre-drilled knockout box or strap, or does it need a self-drilling point?
Sheet metal screws such as the TP706SRC are thread-forming, not self-drilling. They cut their own thread in an existing hole or pilot hole in sheet metal, but they will not drill through the material on their own. If you're fastening into unpunched steel, you want a self-drilling (TEK style) screw instead.
4) How many screws come in a box of Metallics TP706SRC?
Each box holds 100 of the #8 x 1 inch stainless sheet metal screws. For MRO stockrooms and electrical service trucks, that's a single bin quantity rather than a bulk carton, so standardizing one size across a facility usually means ordering several boxes.
5) What is the manufacturer part number for the Metallics #8 x 1 stainless sheet metal screw?
Metallics part number TP706SRC. That's the number to quote for the #8 x 1 inch 18-8 stainless sheet metal screw packed 100 to a box.
