Value Collection R58005300 No. 6 Sheet Metal Screw 1.5 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005300 is a No. 6 hex washer head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal, thin-gauge steel, and similar materials in HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver or bit. Measuring 1.5 inches under the head, this screw is manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel in an uncoated finish, providing strong corrosion resistance in humid, coastal, or chemically exposed environments. It is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 50 units.

This screw is a practical choice for HVAC duct assembly, electrical enclosure work, and light sheet metal fabrication where corrosion resistance is a priority. Grade 316 stainless steel offers better resistance to chlorides and salt environments compared to Grade 304, making it suitable for coastal installations, pool equipment enclosures, and outdoor electrical panels. The hex washer head provides a broad bearing surface and allows torque application with a nut driver or hex socket in addition to a slotted driver.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments
• Hex washer head style provides a wide bearing surface and dual-drive compatibility — slotted or hex driver
• 1.5-inch length measured under the head suits standard sheet metal and thin-gauge panel applications
• No. 6 thread size — common sizing for HVAC ductwork, electrical boxes, and enclosure panels
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and avoids coating delamination in corrosive settings

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose sheet metal fastener suitable for use in HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and light-gauge metal fabrication applications requiring No. 6 corrosion-resistant screws.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a flat-blade screwdriver, slotted bit, or appropriately sized nut driver. Always ensure the receiving material gauge is appropriate for the screw thread to achieve proper engagement. Power down electrical enclosures and de-energize any connected equipment before fastening panels or covers. Follow applicable NEC or mechanical code requirements for enclosure integrity.
