Value Collection R58005358 No. 6 Oval Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R58005358 is a No. 6 oval head sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, ductwork, and sheet metal assemblies. The slotted drive allows installation with a standard flat-blade screwdriver. Constructed from Grade 316 stainless steel with an uncoated finish, this screw offers strong corrosion resistance in wet, coastal, and chemically exposed environments. The 3/8 inch overall length suits shallow-material applications where a short, secure bite is required. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and sheet metal workers commonly use fasteners like this one when assembling or repairing metal components in the field.

This screw is appropriate for light-gauge sheet metal work in both residential and commercial settings. Typical applications include securing HVAC duct sections, junction box covers, electrical enclosures, and thin-metal brackets. The oval head provides a low-profile, finished appearance where the fastener head will remain visible. Grade 316 stainless steel makes this screw a reliable choice in outdoor, marine, pool equipment, and high-humidity mechanical rooms where standard carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Key Features

• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for superior corrosion resistance in harsh and wet environments
• Oval head profile delivers a low-profile, finished look on exposed metal surfaces
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• 3/8 inch overall length suits thin-gauge sheet metal fastening applications
• Uncoated finish maintains dimensional consistency and avoids coating delamination over time

Compatibility

Designed for use in light-gauge sheet metal fastening applications typical of HVAC ductwork, electrical enclosures, and general sheet metal assembly.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a flat-blade screwdriver sized for a No. 6 slotted head. De-energize any electrical enclosure or HVAC system before fastening covers or panels. Pre-drilling a pilot hole in harder or thicker gauge metal reduces the risk of material distortion and screw breakage. Follow applicable NEC or IFGC guidelines when securing electrical or gas-system enclosures.
