#6 X 1" Type AB Self Tapping Sheet Metal Screws | Pan Head | Phillips Drive | Steel Zinc & Bake (9000/Pkg.)

Type AB Self Tapping Sheet Metal Screws are designed for rapid fastening into sheet metal without pre-drilling. The Pan Head with Phillips Drive provides a wide bearing surface and consistent torque for reliable joints in light to mid gauge applications.

Specs

• Dimensions: Thread size #6; Length 1 inch
• Finish: Zinc plated, baked coating
• Drive type: Phillips
• Material: Steel
• Thread type: Type AB self-tapping

Features

• Self-tapping capability: Forms mating threads in sheet metal during installation, enabling fast, secure assemblies without a pre-drilled pilot hole.
• Pan head geometry: Broad bearing surface distributes load, reduces the risk of pull-through on thin metals, and maintains a stable exterior finish.
• Phillips drive: Widely compatible with standard screwdrivers and power drivers, ensuring reliable engagement and torque control.
• Corrosion resistance: Zinc plating with bake-on coating provides protection against corrosion in indoor environments and light outdoor exposure.
• Material compatibility: Suitable for use with steel sheet metal assemblies, including panels and enclosures, where quick assembly and removable fasteners are advantageous.
• Installation considerations: For thicker or harder metals, use appropriate pilot hole sizing and controlled torque to prevent thread deformation and maintain joint integrity.
