Value Collection R63640366 No. 6 Oval Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63640366 is a No. 6 oval head sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin-gauge metal assemblies in HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal fabrication work. Driven by a Phillips driver, the oval head sits partially countersunk with a low-profile dome above the surface, providing a finished appearance where aesthetics matter alongside holding strength. Constructed from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, this screw resists corrosion in humid or outdoor-exposed installations. The overall length is 0.5 inches, making it suited for light-gauge applications where a shorter fastener is required to avoid breakthrough or interference with adjacent components.

This screw is commonly used by HVAC technicians, sheet metal workers, and electricians for securing duct covers, junction box knockouts, equipment panels, and light sheet metal enclosures. The No. 6 thread size is a standard trade size found across residential and light commercial applications. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for installations in coastal environments, mechanical rooms, or anywhere that corrosion from moisture or mild chemicals is a concern. This SKU is sold individually but requires a minimum order quantity of 100 units per purchase.

Key Features

• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in humid or outdoor-exposed environments
• Oval head profile provides a low-profile finished appearance with partial countersink seating
• Phillips drive for compatibility with standard screwdrivers and power drivers
• No. 6 thread size is a widely used standard in sheet metal and light fabrication work
• 0.5 inch overall length suited for light-gauge panel and enclosure fastening

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 6 oval head Phillips sheet metal screw for use in light-gauge sheet metal assemblies, duct panels, equipment enclosures, and similar thin-metal fastening applications across HVAC, electrical, and general sheet metal trades.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws are installed by licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, and sheet metal workers using a Phillips screwdriver or power driver set to appropriate clutch torque to avoid stripping the head or overdriving into thin material. Always de-energize electrical enclosures and panels before fastening or removing hardware per NFPA 70 (NEC) requirements. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended when working with heavier-gauge material to prevent distortion. Avoid cross-threading by aligning the screw perpendicular to the work surface before applying drive force.
