S-93406A017 Length 1/2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Enhanced load distribution thanks to the wide truss head design that prevents pull-through in sheet metal applications
• Quick and secure installation with fully threaded pointed tip that eliminates the need for pre-tapping in materials up to 0.025" thickness
• Reduced cam-out and improved torque transfer through the precision No. 0 Phillips drive for consistent fastening results
• Exceptional holding power achieved by the 52 TPI thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal
• Reliable thread engagement with Class 2A thread tolerances ensuring consistent performance across production runs
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for global industrial applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws deliver exceptional engineering value in sheet metal fabrication and assembly operations. The thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs in high-volume production environments. The combination of 0.06" thread diameter with 52 TPI fine threading creates maximum thread engagement in thin materials, preventing stripping and ensuring vibration resistance. The Phillips truss head provides a larger bearing surface that distributes clamping force effectively, making these industrial fasteners ideal for electronic enclosures, HVAC components, and automotive panels where reliability and corrosion resistance are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These precision tapping screws feature a 0.06" thread diameter with 52 TPI right-hand threads and Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent performance. The 1/2" length and fully threaded design with pointed tip are optimized for 0.025" maximum drilling thickness applications. Manufactured to industry standards for thread forming screws (Type A/AB), these fasteners are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet the strictest requirements for industrial use worldwide.
