Question

For a plastic round ceiling box for lights etc., no screws are furnished. What type/size screws would be recommended?

Would a #8 metal screw be OK?

not really, the plastic has machine screw threads. it's meant to be taken on and off, as it's a JB. You could use sheet metal screws, but it would strio out the plastic threads after a while.
