Stainless Steel Pool Skimmer Faceplate Screws, 1 inch, Bag of 100
Stop chasing rusted-out skimmer screws.
Stainless Steel Pool Skimmer Faceplate Screws (SKU PST-APCSKIM, MPN APCSKIM) are the bulk replacement fastener pool techs and DIY owners reach for when a faceplate, weir door, or skimmer lid keeps backing out. Each bag holds 100 corrosion-resistant 1 inch self-tapping screws sized to bite into the threaded bosses on standard inground and above-ground skimmer bodies, including most Hayward wide-mouth faceplates. Buy once, stock the truck, and stop pulling carbon-steel screws out of pool water that rusted in a season.
Why PST Customers Pick This
Corrosion-Resistant Stainless
Stainless steel shrugs off chlorinated water, salt cells, and sun. The same conditions that turn a plated screw orange in months leave these intact season after season.
Self-Tapping 1 inch Length
Bites cleanly into the threaded bosses on standard skimmer bodies and faceplates. No pre-drilling, no oversized hole, no stripped plastic.
Fits Standard Pool Skimmers
Sized for the most common Hayward wide-mouth and equivalent skimmer faceplates. A direct replacement for the OEM screws you are pulling out.
Bulk Bag of 100
Enough fasteners to service dozens of skimmers. Built for service techs, route pros, and property managers who need them on hand.
Phillips Drive
Standard #2 Phillips drive works with the screwdrivers and impact bits already in your kit. No specialty tools required.
Trusted Pool Hardware
Sold under the All-Tech / B and B Threaded Components APCSKIM part number that pool pros have specified for years.

Frequently Asked Questions
What pool skimmers do these screws fit?
APCSKIM is sized to replace the OEM faceplate and weir-door screws on the most common pool skimmers, including Hayward wide-mouth skimmers and equivalent inground and above-ground models. If your existing screw is a 1 inch self-tapping pan-head, this is the correct replacement.
Why stainless steel instead of the original plated screws?
Plated carbon-steel screws rust quickly in chlorinated and salt-treated pool water, then snap or strip when you try to remove them. Stainless steel resists that corrosion, so the next service call is not a drill-out job.
How many screws come in a bag and why so many?
Each PST-APCSKIM bag holds 100 screws. A typical skimmer faceplate uses 6 to 10, so one bag services 10 to 15 skimmers, which is why pool route techs, builders, and service shops stock them by the bag.
Can I install these myself?
Yes. Drain the skimmer below the faceplate, remove the old screws with a #2 Phillips driver, drop in the new gasket if you are replacing it, and drive these in by hand or with a low-torque cordless driver. Do not overtighten -- stop as soon as the screw is snug against the faceplate to avoid cracking the plastic body.
Will these work with a salt water pool?
Yes. Stainless steel is the correct choice for salt-chlorinated pools, where plated and zinc fasteners corrode quickly. These are an appropriate replacement on salt systems.
