Value Collection 400 Hex Washer Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 400 is a 1/4-inch hex washer head sheet metal screw designed for secure fastening in light-gauge metal applications. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface that resists pull-through, while the hex drive allows for consistent torque application using a standard hex driver or nut driver. At 5/8 inch in length under the head, this screw is suited for thin sheet metal joints where a compact fastener is required. These screws are a standard choice for HVAC duct work, electrical enclosures, metal framing, and similar trade applications.

This screw is used across residential and commercial job sites wherever light-gauge sheet metal panels, brackets, or enclosures need to be joined or secured. Common installation scenarios include HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical panel knockouts, metal stud framing, and equipment housing fabrication. Sold in multiples of 25, these fasteners are intended for professional trade use where consistent, reliable fastening is required across repeated installations.

Key Features

• 1/4-inch thread size for secure bite in light-gauge sheet metal
• 5/8-inch length under head for thin-material fastening
• Hex washer head provides wide bearing surface and pull-through resistance
• Hex drive accepts standard nut drivers and hex bit drivers
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard trade hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-inch hex washer head sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge metal fabrication and assembly applications common in HVAC, electrical, and general trade work.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal fabricators using a hex nut driver or impact driver with the appropriate hex bit. Always de-energize electrical enclosures and shut down HVAC equipment before fastening into live assemblies. Pre-drilling a pilot hole may be required in heavier gauge stock to prevent material distortion. Follow applicable local codes and manufacturer guidelines for fastener spacing and pull-out requirements.
