Value Collection 38707 No. 6 Pan Head Sheet Metal Screw 50 Pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38707 is a No. 6 pan head sheet metal screw with a combination slotted and Phillips drive, designed for fastening light-gauge sheet metal, ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-material assemblies. The screw measures 0.5 inches in length under the head and features a Type AB point for self-starting penetration without pre-drilling in most sheet metal applications. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish, it provides basic corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty installations. This package contains 50 screws.

This fastener is commonly used in HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical panel and junction box installation, and general sheet metal fabrication. The pan head profile sits low and distributes clamping load across a wider area than a hex washer head, making it appropriate where a flush-friendly head is needed. The dual slotted and Phillips drive allows use with a standard flathead or Phillips screwdriver and power driver bits, which is common in field installation work.

Key Features

• Combination slotted and Phillips drive accepts both flathead and Phillips driver bits
• Type AB point self-starts in light-gauge sheet metal without pre-drilling
• Pan head profile provides broad bearing surface and low-profile seating
• Zinc-plated Grade 2 steel finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor use
• 0.5-inch length under head suits thin sheet metal and ductwork connections
• Sold in a 50-count package for jobsite and shop use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 6 Type AB sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal, HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-material fastening applications where a pan head profile is required.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal fabricators using a Phillips or slotted screwdriver or a power driver with the appropriate bit. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling sheet metal edges. Do not overdrive — pan head screws in sheet metal can strip the material or deform the head if excessive torque is applied. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA standards for ductwork fastening intervals and NEC guidelines for electrical enclosure fastening.
