S-92470A335 Length 5" 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.
• Effortless installation through thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping.
• Enhanced driving efficiency with Phillips No. 3 drive, reducing cam-out and ensuring secure fastening in high-torque applications.
• Maximum material engagement with fully threaded 5" length and 10 threads per inch, providing superior holding power in sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness.
• Reliable performance with A/AB tapping screw type and right-hand threading, ensuring consistent results across repetitive assembly operations.
• Optimized head design featuring a standard pan profile that sits flush while distributing clamp load evenly across fastened materials.
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries and global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These thread forming tapping screws deliver exceptional value in sheet metal applications where vibration resistance and long-term reliability are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance, making these Phillips pan head screws suitable for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, and automotive assemblies exposed to moisture and chemicals. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing installation time and labor costs while creating stronger thread engagement than cutting alternatives. With their fully threaded design and 0.242" thread diameter, these A/AB tapping screws maintain consistent clamping force across the entire fastener length, preventing loosening under dynamic loads. The combination of 10 threads per inch and pointed tip ensures quick starting and smooth penetration through sheet metal substrates up to 0.025" thickness.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These No. 14 x 5" tapping screws feature inch system measurements with precision thread forming technology and fully threaded right-hand direction. The fasteners maintain consistent 0.242" thread diameter with 10 threads per inch for reliable performance in sheet metal applications. Manufacturing compliance includes RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and material transparency. The Phillips No. 3 drive system and pan head design conform to industry standards for tapping screws in industrial fastening applications.
