Value Collection R63308486 Sheet Metal Screw 6 Slotted

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63308486 is a Number 6 sheet metal screw with a hex washer head and slotted drive, manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel. It measures 3/4 inches in length under the head. Grade 18-8 stainless steel provides solid corrosion resistance, making this fastener suitable for interior and exterior applications where moisture exposure is a concern. The hex washer head allows for either a slotted screwdriver or a hex-drive tool to seat the fastener securely into sheet metal, light-gauge metal panels, and related substrates. HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general trade installers commonly use this screw type when securing ductwork, equipment panels, and enclosures.

This screw is intended for use in light-gauge sheet metal fabrication and assembly. Common applications include securing HVAC duct flanges, equipment access panels, electrical enclosure covers, and general sheet metal joining tasks in residential and commercial settings. The slotted hex washer head style is a standard configuration in mechanical and HVAC trade work, compatible with common hand tools and power drivers equipped with appropriate bits.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Hex washer head accepts both slotted and hex drive tools
• 3/4 inch length under head suits standard light-gauge sheet metal applications
• Number 6 thread size is a widely used standard in sheet metal fastening
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard trade tooling

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or stock fastener for light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, HVAC ductwork panels, and equipment enclosures requiring a Number 6 hex washer head slotted screw in 3/4 inch length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and general tradespeople using a slotted screwdriver or a hex-drive bit and power driver. Ensure the substrate material and gauge are appropriate for a Number 6 sheet metal screw before driving. Do not overdrive the fastener, as this can strip the sheet metal and compromise the joint. Follow applicable mechanical and building codes for fastener type and spacing in your jurisdiction.
