S-90190A293 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming technology creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and labor costs.
• Optimized for 0.025" maximum drilling thickness in sheet metal applications, providing secure fastening in thin materials without stripping.
• Phillips pan head design offers excellent drive stability and a low-profile finish that minimizes snagging in assembled products.
• Full threading with pointed tip enables quick starts and smooth penetration for faster assembly line operations.
• Compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations ensures environmental responsibility and global market acceptance for your products.
• Standardized A/AB screw type with 11 threads per inch delivers consistent performance and interchangeability across sheet metal applications.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 12 x 5/8" zinc-plated steel tapping screws are engineered specifically for sheet metal fabrication where vibration resistance and material integrity are critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations while creating stronger thread engagement than cutting alternatives. The Phillips drive system combined with the pan head design provides reliable torque transmission and a flush mounting surface, ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, and automotive panels. The zinc-plated finish offers essential corrosion protection in industrial environments, while the fully threaded configuration ensures maximum holding power across the entire fastener length.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These thread forming screws feature a 0.216" thread diameter with 11 threads per inch, compatible with 3/16" drill bits for precise installation. Manufactured to A/AB tapping screw standards with right-hand threading and fully threaded shank design. The product meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliance requirements, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory acceptance for industrial applications worldwide.
