S-92470A112 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments and outdoor applications
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and tooling costs
• Optimized drive engagement with No. 1 Phillips drive prevents cam-out and provides reliable torque transmission during installation
• Full threading along the 5/8" length ensures maximum grip and uniform stress distribution across the entire fastened joint
• Standard pan head profile with 0.219" diameter offers excellent bearing surface and clean finished appearance
• Precision compatibility with No. 44 drill bit (0.086" diameter) for accurate hole preparation in sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for sustainable manufacturing practices

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These thread forming tapping screws deliver exceptional value in sheet metal fabrication and assembly operations. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent resistance to oxidation and chemical corrosion, making these fasteners suitable for demanding applications in HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and outdoor equipment. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by displacing material to create strong, load-bearing threads that resist vibration loosening. The Phillips pan head design combines easy installation with a low-profile appearance, while the fully threaded configuration ensures maximum engagement in thin materials. These screws are particularly valuable in high-volume production environments where reliability, corrosion resistance, and installation efficiency are critical engineering considerations.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 4-24 x 5/8" tapping screw features inch system measurements with precision threading (24 TPI) and a pointed tip for easy starting. The fastener maintains standard dimensional tolerances for consistent performance across applications. Manufacturing and material compliance includes adherence to RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring these components meet current industry standards for restricted substances and sustainable manufacturing practices.
