Steel Sheet Metal Screw, Black Oxide Finish, #6 Trim Head 82 degrees Oval Head, Phillips Drive, Type AB, #8-18 Thread Size, 5/8" Length (Pack of 100)

The black oxide finish steel sheet metal screw with #6 82-degree oval trim head and Phillips drive has a Type AB point for forming threads in thin metals between 0.015" and 0.050" thick and resin impregnated plywood. The Type AB point has the conical tip of a Type A point with the finer spaced threads of a Type B point. Steel is often used in applications where strength is the primary consideration. The black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and lubricity. The trim oval head has an 82-degree cone shape for a flush fit in a countersunk hole, has a slightly rounded top that sits above the mated surface, and is smaller than a standard oval head for less visibility when installed. The Phillips drive has an x-shaped slot that accepts a Phillips driver and is designed to allow the driver to slip out of the head to help prevent over-tightening and damage to the thread or fastener.Sheet metal screws, a type of self-tapping screw, have threads down the entire length of the shank for tapping and fastening thin material. The point style determines the type of material the screw can be used on, such as metal, wood, or plastic. These screws commonly have a sharp point that helps penetrate the material.
