S-90184A247 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 316 stainless steel construction for extended service life in harsh environments
• Excellent thread-forming capability creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Maximum holding power achieved through fully threaded design and 15 TPI thread configuration
• Easy installation with No. 2 Phillips drive that prevents cam-out and ensures secure fastening
• Optimized for thin materials with capability to fasten sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness effectively
• Reliable performance through Type A/AB thread forming design that maintains joint integrity
• Regulatory compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe industrial applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 316 stainless steel tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value in demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance is critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating strong, permanent threads that won't strip or loosen under vibration. The Type A/AB thread design and 15 TPI configuration provide superior pull-out resistance in thin gauge materials up to 0.025" thickness. The Phillips pan head with No. 2 drive ensures efficient installation while the fully threaded pointed tip design facilitates easy starting and consistent fastening depth. Ideal for sheet metal fabrication, electronic enclosures, and marine applications where exposure to moisture and chemicals demands high-corrosion-resistant fasteners that maintain structural integrity over time.
