Value Collection 74216003 No. 6 Pan Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 74216003 is a No. 6 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal and light-gauge materials in a wide range of trade and mechanical applications. The screw measures 1 inch in length under head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance. The pan head profile offers a low-profile bearing surface suitable for flush or near-flush installations. Licensed tradespeople and skilled technicians in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical work routinely rely on this fastener type for securing sheet metal panels, junction boxes, ductwork access covers, and equipment enclosures.

This fastener is well suited for residential and light commercial applications where a standard inch-series No. 6 sheet metal screw is required. Common install scenarios include securing HVAC duct sections, attaching sheet metal panels to equipment frames, fastening electrical enclosure covers, and general sheet metal fabrication and repair work. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard power drivers and manual screwdrivers, making it practical for high-volume install tasks. Each package contains 50 screws, with a minimum order quantity of 5 packages.

Key Features

• No. 6 thread size in inch-series measurement for broad compatibility with standard sheet metal applications
• 1 inch length under head provides adequate engagement for typical light-gauge sheet metal fastening
• Pan head profile delivers a wide, flat bearing surface to distribute clamping load
• Phillips drive accommodates standard manual and power screwdrivers for fast installation
• Grade 2 steel construction balances strength and workability for sheet metal use
• Zinc-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry or mildly humid environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard inch-series No. 6 sheet metal screw suitable for use in light-gauge steel sheet metal fastening applications across HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and general mechanical contractors using standard Phillips-tip manual or power screwdrivers. Confirm the pilot hole size matches the No. 6 thread specification before driving to avoid stripping the sheet metal. Do not overtorque — sheet metal threads strip easily under excessive driver pressure. Follow applicable codes such as SMACNA standards for ductwork fastening intervals and spacing.
