S-93406A150 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments and long-term reliability.
• Exceptional holding power from the wide truss head design, distributing load over a larger surface area to prevent pull-through in sheet metal.
• Efficient thread forming technology creates strong, permanent threads in materials without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and tooling costs.
• Optimized for precision assembly with a No. 2 Phillips drive for secure tool engagement and reduced cam-out during high-torque applications.
• Full threading and pointed tip ensure fast, straight starts and consistent engagement throughout the entire 5/8" length.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe use in regulated industries and global markets.
• Pre-engineered compatibility with No. 32 drill bits (0.116" diameter) for accurate hole preparation and maximum material thickness of 0.025".

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These thread forming tapping screws are engineered specifically for sheet metal applications where vibration resistance and material integrity are critical. The 18-8 Stainless Steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance, making these fasteners suitable for outdoor equipment, HVAC systems, and electronic enclosures exposed to moisture. The A/AB thread type and fully threaded design ensure maximum grip in thin materials, while the wide truss head prevents deformation of softer metals. With right-hand threading and a No. 2 Phillips drive, installation is streamlined for production environments, reducing assembly time and improving joint consistency in industrial fastener applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 6 x 5/8" tapping screw features a 0.138" thread diameter with 18 threads per inch and Class 2A thread fit for standard industrial applications. Manufactured to thread forming standards for type A/AB screws, it is designed for use with No. 32 drill bits (0.116" diameter) in materials up to 0.025" thickness. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory acceptance in global markets.
