Value Collection R63649029 No. 6 Flat Head Slotted Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63649029 is a No. 6 flat head slotted sheet metal screw designed for fastening thin metal panels, brackets, ductwork, and light-gauge sheet metal assemblies. Manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel, this screw resists corrosion in wet or high-humidity environments, making it suitable for HVAC, plumbing, and general sheet metal fabrication. The overall length is 0.375 inches, sized for shallow-depth applications where a flush, countersunk finish is required. The slotted drive accepts a standard flat-blade screwdriver. This fastener is sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces, appropriate for service trucks, job boxes, or shop replenishment.

This screw is used in residential and light commercial installations wherever No. 6 sheet metal fasteners are called for. Common applications include securing duct covers, electrical enclosure panels, HVAC access doors, and thin-gauge metal trim components. The flat head profile countersinks flush with the material surface, reducing snag points in finished assemblies. Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction suits both indoor and outdoor installations where carbon steel fasteners would corrode prematurely.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws of this type are installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians using a flat-blade screwdriver or a slotted bit driver. Pre-drill or punch a pilot hole sized appropriately for No. 6 sheet metal screws to prevent material distortion. De-energize and lock out any electrical or mechanical equipment before fastening panels or covers. Do not overtorque; light-gauge sheet metal will strip or deform under excessive drive force.
