Replacement fastener 9900808 is a flat head screw used to secure components on compatible SprayTech equipment. When original screws become lost, damaged, or stripped, they can compromise the secure assembly of critical components. This screw restores proper fastening and ensures components remain securely attached during operation.
Flat Head Screw for SprayTech AirCoat and Stati Kit Equipment
The 9900808 Flat Head Screw is a specific fastener designed for use in SprayTech AirCoat GM 2600 and Stati Kit 2000 equipment. This flat head screw is engineered with precise thread specifications and head design to ensure secure fastening of components in these spray finishing systems.
Using incorrect or damaged screws can lead to loose components, vibration issues, or assembly failures. Replacing with the proper OEM flat head screw ensures flush mounting where needed, secure fastening, and maintains the structural integrity of the equipment assembly.
Installation Tip: Flat head screws are designed to sit flush with or below the surface. Ensure proper seating and avoid overtightening, which can strip threads or damage the countersunk area.

Frequently Asked Questions
The 9900808 flat head screw has specific engineering specifications including: precise length (measured from under the head to the tip), thread pitch and diameter (likely metric or UNC/UNF standard), 82-degree flat head angle for proper countersinking, and specific drive type (likely Phillips or slotted). The material is typically steel with appropriate plating (zinc, cadmium, or other corrosion-resistant coating) suitable for spray equipment environments.
Using the OEM 9900808 screw ensures: 1) Exact length for proper engagement without bottoming out or being too short, 2) Correct thread pitch and diameter for the specific tapped holes in SprayTech equipment, 3) Proper head angle (82 degrees) to match the countersink in components, 4) Appropriate material and coating for corrosion resistance in spray finishing environments, and 5) Consistency with other fasteners in the assembly. Generic screws may appear similar but can cause improper clamping, thread damage, or corrosion issues.
It's recommended to purchase at least 3-5 screws even if you only need one replacement. Having extras ensures you have spares for future needs, accounts for potential installation errors, and allows for replacement of multiple screws that may show similar wear. Screws are small components that can be easily dropped or lost during maintenance. Many technicians maintain a small inventory of common fasteners for their equipment to minimize downtime.
Proper installation involves: 1) Ensuring the countersink is clean and free of debris, 2) Using the correct screwdriver size to prevent cam-out and head damage, 3) Applying steady pressure while turning to maintain alignment, 4) Tightening until the screw head is flush with or slightly below the surface, 5) Avoiding overtightening which can strip threads or crack components, and 6) For critical applications, using a torque wrench if specifications are available. If the screw doesn't seat properly, check for debris or damaged threads rather than forcing it.
