Marine Bolt Supply #8 Type 316 Stainless Steel Self Tapping Phillips Pan Head Sheet Metal Screws deliver exceptional corrosion resistance for the most demanding marine, coastal, and chlorinated environments. Crafted from premium Type 316 stainless steel, these screws significantly outperform standard 304 or 18-8 stainless steel in harsh saltwater conditions, making them essential for boat repairs, marine hardware installations, and any application exposed to moisture and corrosive elements. The self-tapping design features a sharp Type A point that cuts its own threads, eliminating the need for pre-drilling in sheet metal, wood, and thin gauge materials for quick and efficient installation. The Phillips pan head configuration provides a low-profile finish and easy engagement with standard #2 Phillips screwdrivers or drill bits. At Size #8 and 1" long, these versatile fasteners offer reliable holding power for light to medium-duty connections across a wide range of applications, including automotive projects, HVAC ductwork, outdoor fixtures, and general metal fabrication work. Trust Marine Bolt Supply for top-quality fasteners engineered to withstand the elements and deliver long-lasting performance.
