Eico 147A screw size question

#6 designates the diameter of the screw shank. Since they only hold the front panel the length and threads per inch isn't too critical. Simply try some #6 sheet metal screws long enough to go through both the front panel and into the cabinet.

Yeah, I know. Thanks for your input however. I was mainly curious about the "P.K." designation as I have never seen that before. So now I know that is/was a manufacturer and it denotes a self tapping type of screw.
