S-90190A152 Length 7/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, extending service life in demanding industrial environments
• Exceptional holding power through thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Optimized for 0.025" thick materials with precise thread diameter and pitch for maximum fastening reliability in sheet metal applications
• Easy installation and removal with Phillips No. 2 drive that provides secure tool engagement and reduces cam-out risks
• Streamlined assembly process using fully threaded design that ensures consistent engagement along the entire 7/8" length
• Enhanced material compatibility with A/AB thread forming type that works effectively in various sheet metal grades
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for responsible manufacturing and global market acceptance

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These zinc-plated steel tapping screws deliver exceptional performance in sheet metal fastening applications where vibration resistance and permanent installation are critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating strong, clean threads that won't strip or loosen under stress. The Phillips pan head design provides a low-profile finish while ensuring positive drive engagement during installation. Engineered specifically for 0.025" maximum material thickness, these No. 6-18 screws offer reliable performance in HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where sheet metal fasteners must maintain integrity despite thermal cycling and mechanical loads.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This thread forming sheet metal screw features precise No. 6-18 thread specifications with 0.138" diameter and 18 TPI right-hand threading. The Phillips No. 2 drive ensures consistent installation torque, while the 7/8" fully threaded length provides maximum engagement in designated material thicknesses. Manufactured to A/AB tapping screw standards with pan head configuration and pointed tip for easy starting. Fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, making them suitable for global industrial applications requiring verified material safety standards.
