Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 10-12 x 7/8" Phillips Pan Head tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value in sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and thread integrity are critical. The Type A/AB thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing assembly time and labor costs while creating strong, vibration-resistant connections. Manufactured from 18-8 Stainless Steel, this fastener maintains structural integrity in humid, chemical, or outdoor environments where carbon steel fasteners would corrode. The fully threaded configuration with pointed tip ensures maximum thread engagement in thin materials up to 0.025" thickness, providing superior pull-out resistance compared to partial-thread alternatives. Ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where reliable sheet metal fastening is essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This tapping screw features precision No. 10-12 thread specifications with 12 threads per inch and 0.19" thread diameter, designed for optimal performance in sheet metal applications. The fastener complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental standards, ensuring hazardous substance restrictions are met. The Type A/AB thread forming design follows industry standards for self-tapping fasteners, providing reliable performance without requiring pre-tapped holes. With 7/8" length and No. 2 Phillips drive compatibility, this screw delivers consistent installation performance across industrial applications.
