304 SS Wood Screws #4×1 – 16-Pack
$4.95
Sixteen #4×1 304 stainless wood screws for mounting spa cover lock bodies to the cabinet. $4.95. The ones that rust in a season are why covers rattle.
Description
Lock bodies only stay put if the screws do. This is a 16-pack of #4×1 304 stainless wood screws — enough to remount four lock bodies and have a few left when one rolls under the spa. 304 stainless is the right call on a wet cabinet. Painted drywall screws from the junk drawer will rust, stain the acrylic, and back out.
Complete kits already include a set of stainless screws. Buy this pack when you are replacing lock bodies, moving a strap to a new cabinet, or the original screws are orange. These are #4×1 wood screws, not lag bolts. They go into the spa cabinet skin / wood backing, not into concrete. If your cabinet is a thin plastic shell with nothing behind it, you still need a solid bite — a backing block beats a longer screw into air.
Spa cover lock mounting screws FAQ
What size are these screws?
#4×1, 304 stainless, wood thread. Sixteen in the pack. Sized for the female lock bodies on SpaCoverStraps kits.
Does the complete kit already include screws?
Yes. Kits ship with stainless mounting screws. This 16-pack is extras or replacements when you are remounting locks or the old screws have rusted.
304 or 316 stainless?
This pack is 304 stainless, which is what this SKU is. It holds up on a wet spa cabinet a lot better than zinc drywall screws. Do not swap in hardware-store black screws and expect them to last a season.
Will they work in a plastic spa cabinet?
They need something solid to bite. Thin plastic with a wood or composite backing is fine. Hollow plastic with no backing will strip. Add a block behind the cabinet wall if it flexes.
How many screws per lock body?
Plan on two to four per female body depending on the lock. Sixteen covers a full four-lock remount with spares.
