Before purchase

Good to know

!
Not wall-mount screws
These 1″ screws attach the housing head to the bracket; they are not intended to anchor the bracket to a wall.

!
Confirm thread size
The housing-head mounting points must accept 5/16″ screws.

!
Do not overtighten
Excessive torque can strip or crack the housing-head mounting points.

!
Four screws may not complete every build
The number of screws required depends on the bracket design and number of housings.

!
Not for slim housings
These screws are listed for Big Blue housing-head mounting and may not fit standard slim housing assemblies.

!
Finish and thread pitch are not stated
The current listing does not identify the screw coating, steel grade, thread pitch, or exact hex-drive size.

This product includes four housing-mount screws only. Brackets, filter housings, wall screws, anchors, washers, and tools are not included. Verify the bracket-hole size, housing-head thread size, screw quantity, and installation requirements before use.
Not sure whether SCREW1-516-4 fits your housing?
