Value Collection R63649642 No. 6 Flat Head Slotted Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63649642 is a No. 6 flat head slotted sheet metal screw manufactured from Grade 18-8 stainless steel. It measures 0.75 inches in overall length and is designed to fasten thin-gauge sheet metal, light-gauge steel panels, and similar materials in mechanical, electrical, and HVAC applications. The flat head profile sits flush with the work surface once driven, making it well suited for assemblies where a raised head would interfere with clearance or aesthetics. Grade 18-8 stainless steel provides corrosion resistance in environments exposed to moisture, mild chemicals, or outdoor conditions. A standard slotted drive accepts a flat-blade screwdriver for installation without specialty tooling.

This screw is commonly used in HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, ductwork access covers, junction boxes, and light sheet metal fabrication. It fits residential and light commercial applications wherever a small-diameter, flush-seating fastener is needed. The No. 6 thread size is a standard choice for thin-gauge sheet metal work across the mechanical trades. Sold in minimum order quantities of 100 pieces, this fastener suits service technicians and contractors who need a consistent, corrosion-resistant stock fastener on hand for panel and enclosure work.

Key Features

• No. 6 thread size suited for thin-gauge sheet metal and enclosure panels
• 0.75 inch overall length for shallow-material fastening without breakthrough
• Flat head profile seats flush with the work surface
• Slotted drive works with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• Grade 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or outdoor environments

Compatibility

Designed as a standard No. 6 flat head slotted sheet metal screw for use in HVAC panels, electrical enclosures, ductwork covers, and general light-gauge sheet metal assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal mechanics using a flat-blade screwdriver or matching slotted bit. Power down and de-energize any electrical enclosure or HVAC unit before removing or replacing panel fasteners. Avoid overtightening in thin-gauge material, as sheet metal threads can strip under excessive torque. Follow applicable NEC or IFGC panel access requirements when servicing energized equipment enclosures.
