Value Collection R58005334 Sheet Metal Screw 316 Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005334 is a size 12 sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin-gauge metal panels, brackets, and enclosures in HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. The hex washer head provides a built-in bearing surface that distributes clamping load and resists pull-through on sheet stock. The slotted drive accepts a flat-blade screwdriver or bit. Constructed from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this screw resists corrosion in wet, coastal, and chemically aggressive environments where standard carbon steel fasteners would fail prematurely. Length under head measures 1 inch.

This screw is suited for residential and light commercial installations where corrosion resistance is a priority. Typical applications include securing HVAC sheet metal panels, electrical enclosure covers, pool equipment housings, and marine-adjacent installations. The Grade 316 alloy is the standard choice when chloride exposure or high-humidity conditions are a factor. The hex washer head allows installation with either a flat-blade driver or a 1/4-inch hex nut driver, which is common on sheet metal work in the field.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments
• Hex washer head with integrated bearing surface reduces pull-through on thin sheet metal
• Slotted drive compatible with flat-blade screwdrivers and standard bit drivers
• 1 inch length under head suits typical sheet metal panel thickness ranges
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and avoids coating delamination under torque

Compatibility

Designed as a standard size 12 sheet metal screw for use in HVAC, electrical, pool, and general trade applications requiring a hex washer head slotted drive fastener in Grade 316 stainless steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed with a flat-blade screwdriver or a 1/4-inch hex nut driver. Ensure the substrate is properly clamped or fixtured before driving to prevent metal walking. When fastening into stainless steel sheet, use appropriate anti-seize practices to reduce the risk of galling. Minimum order quantity for this item is 25 pieces per order.
