FAQs
What tool do I need to install snake eye screws?
A snake eye (spanner) bit or driver. Phillips, flathead, and Torx won't engage the two-hole pattern. That's by design - only installers with the right bit can remove the device.
What Kidde devices do these screws fit?
These #8 x 2" screws are sized for standard Kidde fire alarm mounting applications including pull stations, notification appliances, and similar wall-mounted devices. Verify your device's mounting screw spec before ordering.
Are these screws rated for outdoor use?
Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor-rated installations. For exterior applications, confirm the enclosure and mounting surface are also rated for the environment.
