Value Collection 0616AW No. 6 Sheet Metal Screw Hex Washer Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0616AW is a No. 6 sheet metal screw with a hex washer head and hex drive, designed for fastening thin metal assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and light fabrication applications. The screw measures 1 inch in length under the head and features a Type A point for self-starting entry into pre-drilled or punched sheet metal. It is manufactured from 1016/1024 carbon steel with a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. These fasteners are sold in multiples of 100 and are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, sheet metal workers, and mechanical contractors.

This screw is suited for light-gauge sheet metal work including ductwork connections, electrical enclosure assembly, HVAC cabinet panels, and general metal-to-metal fastening. The Type A point is compatible with pre-punched holes and thinner gauge sheet metal stock. The hex washer head provides a bearing surface that distributes clamping load and reduces pull-through risk in thin materials. The hex drive accepts standard hex nut drivers, making installation fast with common trade tools.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 6 Type A sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge sheet metal fastening applications common in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general metal fabrication.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by sheet metal workers, HVAC technicians, and electricians using a hex nut driver or power driver with a hex bit. De-energize any electrical enclosure before fastening panels. Ensure the base material gauge is appropriate for a Type A point; excessively thick stock may require a pilot hole or a different point type. Follow applicable codes including SMACNA duct construction standards for ductwork fastener spacing.
