Value Collection 0614ABPF No. 6 Flat Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0614ABPF is a No. 6 Type AB sheet metal screw with a flat head and Phillips drive, manufactured from Grade 1016-1024 steel with a zinc-plated finish. At 7/8 inches overall length, this screw is sized for light-gauge sheet metal fastening applications common in HVAC duct fabrication, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal work. The Type AB point combines a gimlet tip with spaced threads, allowing it to self-tap into pre-punched or pre-drilled holes in thin metal. Sold in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order. Installation requires a No. 2 Phillips driver bit.

This screw is used across HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication trades wherever thin sheet metal panels, duct sections, junction boxes, or equipment enclosures need to be secured. The flat head sits flush or countersunk against the workpiece surface, keeping the fastened assembly low-profile. The zinc plating provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered outdoor applications. HVAC installers and sheet metal workers routinely use this size for duct connections, register covers, and access panels.

Key Features

• Type AB point self-taps into pre-punched or pre-drilled holes in light-gauge sheet metal
• Flat head design sits flush or countersunk for a low-profile finished surface
• No. 2 Phillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand screwdrivers
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered installations
• Grade 1016-1024 steel construction meets AISI, ASME, and SAE standards
• Sold in multiples of 100 for job-site and shop inventory efficiency

Compatibility

Designed for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies including HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general fabrication applications requiring a No. 6 flat-head self-tapping screw with Type AB point geometry.

Installation Notes

Install using a No. 2 Phillips bit at a controlled torque to avoid stripping the zinc-plated head. Ensure the receiving material is pre-punched or pre-drilled to the appropriate pilot hole diameter for a No. 6 Type AB thread before driving. In electrical enclosure applications, fastener installation should follow NEC guidelines for equipment grounding continuity where applicable. Avoid overtightening in thin-gauge material, as the flat head can distort the sheet surface.
