Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in demanding environments.
  • Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time.
  • Optimized for 0.025" maximum drilling thickness with No. 48 drill bit compatibility for precise sheet metal applications.
  • Enhanced drive stability with Phillips No. 1 drive style and pan head profile for secure fastening and reduced cam-out.
  • Full threading with 32 TPI provides maximum grip and uniform load distribution along the entire screw length.
  • Compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations ensures environmental safety and meets international standards.
  • Right-hand thread with pointed tip enables easy starting and smooth penetration in sheet metal assemblies.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 2 Phillips tapping screw is specifically engineered for sheet metal applications where reliability and durability are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor or humid environments. The thread forming design (Type A/AB) eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by creating strong, clean threads directly in the material, reducing assembly time and minimizing the risk of strip-out. With its fully threaded configuration and 32 TPI precision, it ensures consistent clamping force and vibration resistance in thin-gauge metal assemblies up to 0.025" thickness. The pan head with Phillips drive provides a low-profile finish while maintaining secure torque transmission during installation.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This tapping screw features a 0.086" thread diameter with 32 TPI right-hand threads and Class 2A inch system tolerances. It complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use in various industrial applications. The screw is designed for use with No. 48 drill bits (0.076" diameter) and is manufactured to standard tapping screw specifications for consistent performance and reliability.
