S-90053A151 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term durability in harsh industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and labor costs.
• Easy installation and removal with standard slotted drive and fully threaded pointed tip, allowing quick fastening using common No. 32 drill bits.
• Excellent holding power from the pan head design that distributes clamping force evenly, preventing loosening under vibration.
• Reliable performance in thin materials with maximum 0.025" drilling thickness capability, ideal for various sheet metal applications.
• Industry-standard compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations, ensuring safe use in global manufacturing operations.
• Precision thread engagement with No. 6-18 right-hand threads providing consistent fastening strength across multiple installations.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These zinc-plated steel tapping screws deliver exceptional value in sheet metal fastening applications where reliability and efficiency are critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, significantly reducing assembly time while creating strong, strip-resistant threads in metal substrates. The combination of slotted drive style and pan head design ensures compatibility with standard tools while providing sufficient bearing surface for secure fastening. Fully threaded with a pointed tip, these A/AB tapping screws start easily and drive straight, minimizing the risk of cross-threading in production environments. Ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and automotive components, these screws maintain consistent performance even in high-vibration applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These No. 6-18 x 3/4" tapping screws feature precise 0.138" thread diameter with 18 threads per inch and comply with standard thread forming specifications for sheet metal applications. Manufactured to consistent dimensional tolerances, they ensure reliable performance with recommended No. 32 drill bits (0.116" diameter). The products are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, meeting the latest environmental and safety standards for industrial fasteners.
