Itw Buildex 560107 Hex Washer Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The ITW BUILDEX 560107 is a No. 9 hex washer head sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in light-gauge metal applications. Measuring 2 inches in length under the head, this screw features a hex drive for high-torque installation with a nut driver or hex bit. The steel construction provides solid holding power in ductwork, metal framing, and general sheet metal assembly. It is sold in packs of 100, making it practical for volume work on HVAC, electrical enclosure, or light structural sheet metal jobs.

This screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where a self-tapping fastener is needed to join sheet metal panels, attach components to light-gauge steel framing, or secure ductwork sections. The hex washer head distributes load across a wider bearing surface compared to a flat or pan head, reducing pull-through in thinner gauge material. HVAC installers, sheet metal workers, and electrical contractors commonly use this fastener in both new construction and service work.

Key Features

• No. 9 thread size for reliable thread engagement in light-gauge steel
• 2-inch length under head provides adequate grip for multi-layer sheet metal joints
• Hex washer head design offers a wide bearing surface to reduce material deformation
• Hex drive accepts standard nut drivers and hex bits for fast power-tool installation
• Steel construction for strength in metal-to-metal fastening
• Pack of 100 supports high-volume installation tasks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use fastener for light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and metal framing applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, or electricians using a hex nut driver or impact driver fitted with the appropriate hex bit. Power down any associated electrical systems before fastening near live components. Avoid overtightening, which can strip the thread engagement in thin-gauge material. Follow applicable SMACNA ductwork standards or NEC guidelines as required by the installation type.
