L H Dottie Co TEKPH61 Phillips Pan Head Screw 6x1 100pk

Product Description

The L H Dottie Co TEKPH61 is a Phillips pan head self-tapping sheet metal screw sized No. 6 by 1 inch, sold in a 100-piece pack. Self-tapping screws in this size range are a standard fastener in HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure installation, and light sheet metal fabrication. The Phillips drive allows fast installation with a standard No. 2 Phillips bit or screw gun. Having a box of 100 on hand keeps service techs and installers moving without repeated trips to the supply house.

This fastener is suited for residential and light commercial applications where thin-gauge sheet metal needs to be joined without pre-drilling a separate tapped hole. Common uses include securing duct sections, attaching sheet metal flanges, fastening junction box knockouts, and general trade-supply work across HVAC, electrical, and plumbing rough-in. The No. 6 diameter and 1-inch length make it appropriate for single or double-layer light-gauge material typical in these installations.

Key Features

• Phillips drive accepts standard No. 2 Phillips bit for fast installation
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load across the material surface
• Self-tapping point eliminates the need for a separate tapping step in light-gauge sheet metal
• 100-piece pack suits job-site stocking and service van inventory
• No. 6 x 1 inch size covers a wide range of common light-gauge fastening tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose self-tapping sheet metal screw for use in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light sheet metal assemblies where a No. 6 x 1 inch Phillips pan head fastener is required.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver or a variable-speed screw gun. Verify that the base material gauge is appropriate for a No. 6 self-tapping screw before driving to avoid stripping. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA ductwork standards or NEC enclosure fastening requirements for the specific application. Do not overdrive — pan head screws in light-gauge metal can pull through if excess torque is applied.
