Professional Applications & Engineering Value
These 316 stainless steel thread forming screws deliver exceptional performance in demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and joint integrity are critical. The A/AB tapping screw type with pointed tip and 15 threads per inch creates clean, secure threads in pre-drilled holes without generating metal chips, eliminating contamination risks in sensitive assemblies. The combination of 0.164" thread diameter and No. 2 square drive provides reliable installation in thin-gauge materials up to 0.025" thickness, making these fasteners ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and automotive panels where vibration resistance and long-term durability are essential.
Specification Summary & Compliance
These No. 8 x 1" tapping screws feature right-hand threading with 0.164" thread diameter and 15 threads per inch, designed for use with No. 29 drill bit (0.136" diameter). The thread forming tapping method creates strong engagements in sheet metal without requiring through-threading. Manufactured to industry standards for A/AB tapping screw types, these fasteners are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use across various industrial sectors.
