Value Collection R58005158 No. 6 Flat Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005158 is a No. 6 flat head slotted sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. At 1-1/4 inches in overall length, this fastener is designed for secure attachment into thin sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar substrates. The flat head profile sits flush with the material surface after installation, making it well suited for applications where a smooth, low-profile finish is required. Grade 316 stainless steel provides strong corrosion resistance, particularly in environments exposed to moisture, chemicals, or salt air. These screws are sold in a minimum order quantity of 50 units per order.

This fastener is appropriate for use in HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosure fabrication, plumbing fixture mounting, and general sheet metal work across residential and light commercial applications. The slotted drive is compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and slotted bit drivers, making it accessible with common hand and power tools found in most trade toolkits. Grade 316 stainless steel construction makes these screws a preferred choice in coastal, high-humidity, or chemically active environments where standard carbon steel fasteners would be prone to corrosion.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Flat head profile seats flush with the material surface for a clean, low-profile finish
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flathead screwdrivers and slotted power bits
• 1-1/4 inch overall length suits a range of light-gauge sheet metal thicknesses
• Uncoated finish maintains base material corrosion properties without added surface treatment
• No. 6 thread size is a widely used standard gauge in sheet metal fastening applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 6 flat head slotted sheet metal screw for use with light-gauge sheet metal panels, ductwork, enclosures, and similar thin-material assemblies common in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing trade work.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are typically installed by HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers during equipment assembly, duct fabrication, or enclosure work. De-energize all electrical equipment and shut off relevant systems before fastening into panels or enclosures. A pilot hole is recommended when working with heavier-gauge material to prevent splitting or distortion. Use a screwdriver or slotted bit driver sized to fit the slot cleanly to avoid cam-out and head damage.
