Value Collection R58005228 No. 6 Flat Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005228 is a No. 6 flat head Phillips sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish. At 1.25 inches overall length, this fastener is sized for light sheet metal fabrication, HVAC ductwork assembly, electrical enclosures, and similar thin-material joining applications. Grade 316 stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard 18-8 grades, making it well suited for installations exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor conditions. The flat head profile sits flush with the work surface when driven fully, and the Phillips drive is compatible with standard power tools and hand drivers used across mechanical and electrical trades.

This screw is used in applications where a flush-seating fastener is required in sheet metal, light gauge steel, aluminum, and similar substrates. HVAC installers commonly use No. 6 Phillips flat head screws for ductwork, plenums, and equipment panel assembly. Electricians use them in enclosure and conduit fitting work. The Grade 316 material grade makes this fastener appropriate for coastal environments, marine service, or any installation site with elevated corrosion risk. This SKU is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 50 units per order.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in demanding environments
• No. 6 thread size with 1.25 inches overall length for light gauge sheet metal work
• Flat head profile seats flush with the work surface for clean, low-profile installations
• Phillips drive compatible with standard power drivers and hand tools
• Uncoated finish retains the natural properties of the base alloy without added coatings

Compatibility

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

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by electricians, HVAC technicians, and sheet metal workers using a Phillips-tip bit in a hand driver or low-torque power driver. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder materials prevents material distortion and reduces cam-out risk. De-energize any electrical enclosure and shut down HVAC equipment before fastening panels or covers. Do not overtorque stainless steel fasteners, as the material is susceptible to galling under high rotational force.
