Value Collection 697019PR No. 6 Flat Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 697019PR is a No. 6 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal assemblies, sheet metal ductwork, metal brackets, and light-gauge steel components. Manufactured from 1016/1024 carbon steel with a zinc finish for corrosion resistance, this screw features a Type AB point for fast thread engagement in pre-drilled or punched holes. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface after installation. At 0.25 inches overall length, it is suited for thin-stock applications where a low-profile, secure fastener is required. A No. 2 Phillips driver bit is used for installation.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, sheet metal cabinet work, and light-gauge metal framing. The Type AB point combines the sharp-start characteristics of a Type A point with the more controlled thread engagement of a Type B, making it well suited for both piercing and threading into thin steel sheet. Trades including HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers will find this fastener appropriate for production and field assembly tasks involving thin ferrous stock.

Key Features

• No. 6 thread size with 0.25 inch overall length for thin-stock fastening
• Flat head profile allows flush seating against metal surfaces
• No. 2 Phillips drive for compatibility with standard power and hand drivers
• Type AB point for fast starts in pre-drilled or punched holes
• 1016/1024 carbon steel construction meets AISI 1016, ASME B18.6.3, ASME B18.6.4, and SAE J933 standards
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion protection in dry or sheltered environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge steel, aluminum, and similar thin-stock materials where a No. 6 Type AB point fastener is specified.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a No. 2 Phillips bit using a power driver or manual screwdriver. For consistent results in production applications, set driver clutch torque to avoid stripping the head or over-driving the fastener through thin sheet. Pre-drill or punch a pilot hole sized to the thread diameter when working with harder or thicker stock. Minimum order quantity is 100 pieces per order.
