Value Collection C5322 Pan Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION C5322 is a No. 6 pan head Phillips drive sheet metal screw designed for light-gauge metal fastening in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal fabrication work. Each screw measures 3/4 inch in length under the head and is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and protected outdoor applications. The Type AB point type allows for self-starting engagement in pre-drilled or punched sheet metal without requiring a pilot tap. This listing covers a 100-piece package suited for service techs and contractors who need a reliable shop or service-van fastener supply.

This screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fastening, and general sheet metal panel attachment. Typical applications include securing duct flanges, junction box covers, equipment access panels, and thin-gauge brackets. The pan head profile provides a broad bearing surface that distributes clamping load across the sheet material, reducing the risk of pull-through in lighter gauges. The Phillips drive is compatible with standard No. 2 Phillips bits used by HVAC technicians and electricians.

Key Features

• No. 6 thread size with Type AB self-starting point for use in sheet metal without tapping
• 3/4 inch length under head suits single- and double-layer light-gauge sheet metal joints
• Pan head profile distributes load and sits flush against flat panel surfaces
• Grade 2 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for structural fastening in non-critical assemblies
• Zinc-plated finish offers corrosion resistance in dry and protected environments
• 100-piece packaging supports bulk service work and shop stock replenishment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose OEM-style replacement and stock fastener for light-gauge sheet metal applications in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and fabrication assemblies requiring a No. 6 pan head Phillips sheet metal screw.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal fabricators using a No. 2 Phillips bit in a hand screwdriver or low-torque power driver. De-energize all electrical equipment and verify gas or refrigerant systems are shut down before fastening access panels or enclosure covers. Avoid over-driving, which can strip the thread engagement in thin-gauge material. Follow applicable SMACNA duct construction standards and NEC enclosure requirements for fastener spacing and panel integrity.
