05107 SCREW TAPPING SS PH PAN 8X1/2 BX100

Overview

The Midwest Fastener Tapping Screw, Stainless Steel, Phillips Pan Head, 8 x 1/2" (05107) is designed for fastening applications requiring corrosion-resistant hardware across sheet metal, plastic, wood, hard rubber, aluminum, and comparable materials.

Technical Features

• Stainless steel construction: Provides inherent corrosion resistance, making these screws suitable for applications exposed to moisture or chemically active environments.
• Sharp self-tapping threads: Cut directly into the mating material without requiring a pre-tapped hole, reducing installation steps and labor time.
• Fully threaded shank: Thread engagement runs the full length of the fastener, maximizing pull-out resistance and retention strength — particularly effective when fastening into wood.
• Pan head profile: Low-dome, flat-bottomed head style distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface, reducing the risk of surface deformation on thinner materials.
• Phillips drive: Compatible with standard Phillips screwdrivers and power bits for fast installation with widely available tooling.
• Box of 100: Bulk packaging supports production, assembly-line, or multi-point fastening tasks without frequent restocking.

Applications

• Attaching sheet metal components and panels where self-tapping capability eliminates pre-drilling requirements.
• Fastening metal hardware to wood substrates, leveraging the fully threaded shank for maximum retention.
• Securing plastic housings, enclosures, or trim where thread-cutting screws provide reliable grip without inserts.
• Use with hard rubber, aluminum, and other comparable compositions as noted by the manufacturer.
• General fabrication, HVAC, electrical enclosure assembly, and light structural joining tasks.
