Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws are engineered specifically for sheet metal fastening applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing installation time and labor costs while creating stronger, more reliable threads in metal substrates. The Phillips drive system with No. 1 drive size provides excellent torque transmission and prevents cam-out during high-volume assembly operations. With their fully threaded design and 0.086" thread diameter, these A/AB type screws deliver maximum pull-out resistance in thin-gauge materials, making them ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where vibration resistance and long-term performance are critical requirements.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 2 x 3/8" tapping screw features precision right-hand threads with 32 TPI thread pitch and 0.086" thread diameter, manufactured to industry standards for sheet metal fasteners. The screw complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use across various industrial sectors. The thread forming tapping method and fully threaded construction provide reliable performance in specified material thicknesses up to 0.025", with compatibility for No. 48 drill bits (0.076" diameter) for proper installation.
