The screw measures 1-1\/4 inches in length under head and features a Type A point for self-starting entry into pre-punched or drilled sheet metal. Constructed from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish, it provides baseline corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and sheltered installations. The slotted drive accepts standard flat-blade screwdrivers and magnetic bit drivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis screw is a staple fastener in HVAC service and light sheet metal work. It is widely used when securing access panels, junction box covers, equipment housings, and duct flanges. The Type A point threads into sheet metal without requiring a tapped hole, making it well suited for field repairs and equipment assembly where speed and simplicity matter. The pan head profile distributes clamping load across the surface and sits low enough to avoid interference with adjacent components in tight equipment interiors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo. 6 thread size with Type A self-starting point for direct sheet metal entry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-1\/4 inch length under head for moderate material stack penetration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePan head profile spreads load and resists pull-through in thin gauge material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlotted drive compatible with flat-blade screwdrivers and standard power bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction with zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard No. 6 Type A pan head sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge sheet metal panels, HVAC equipment cabinets, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-metal fastening applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a flat-blade screwdriver or a power driver with a slotted bit. Always de-energize electrical equipment and follow applicable NEC or IFGC guidelines before accessing internal panels. Pre-punch or pre-drill the sheet metal to the appropriate pilot hole size for a No. 6 Type A screw to prevent material distortion and ensure thread engagement. Avoid overtightening, which can strip the shallow thread engagement in thin gauge stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: No. 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Under Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pan Head\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Type A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem of Measurement\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 696358PR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51689404432690,"sku":"696358PR","price":1127.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4ce3f567c9843a5050bd360e7b6c9c25.jpg?v=1788258941","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-696358pr-sheet-metal-screw-size-6-pan-head","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
