Value Collection R63646648 No. 12 Oval Head Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63646648 is a No. 12 oval head sheet metal screw designed for fastening sheet metal, light-gauge steel, and similar thin-material assemblies. The Phillips drive allows for fast installation with standard power tools. Constructed from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, this screw resists corrosion in environments where moisture or mild chemicals are present. The overall length is 1 inch. This screw is suitable for use by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general sheet metal workers who require a corrosion-resistant fastener for panel, duct, and enclosure work.

This fastener is commonly used in HVAC duct assembly, electrical enclosure attachment, sheet metal panel securing, and light mechanical fabrication. The oval head profile sits slightly above the surface, providing a finished appearance while maintaining a secure clamp. It is well-suited for both shop fabrication and field installation in residential and light commercial applications where a stainless fastener is specified for longevity.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers using a Phillips bit driver or compatible power screwdriver. Always de-energize electrical enclosures and shut down HVAC systems before fastening panels or covers. Avoid over-driving the screw, as excessive torque can strip the threads in thin-gauge material or damage the drive head. Follow applicable mechanical and electrical codes for fastener placement and panel integrity.
