S-93406A246 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance with 316 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh or outdoor industrial environments.
• Superior holding power in sheet metal due to the thread forming (Type A/AB) design that creates strong, permanent threads without pre-tapping.
• Wide truss head design provides a larger bearing surface for enhanced load distribution and resistance to pull-through.
• Efficient and secure installation with the No. 2 Phillips drive, offering good torque transfer and reducing cam-out risk.
• Full threading ensures maximum grip and consistent fastening strength along the entire 5/8" length.
• Compliance with major environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safety and suitability for regulated industries.
• Optimized for 0.025" maximum sheet thickness with a pointed tip for easy starting and precise alignment.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered for demanding sheet metal fastening, these 316 Stainless Steel Phillips Truss Head Tapping Screws solve critical challenges in HVAC, electronics enclosures, and automotive assemblies. The thread forming action eliminates the need for a separate tapping operation, saving time and reducing assembly costs while creating strong, strip-resistant threads in ductile materials. The wide truss head offers a low-profile, high-clamp solution that distributes load effectively, preventing sheet distortion. Made from 316 stainless steel, these screws provide outstanding resistance to chemicals, saltwater, and industrial atmospheres, ensuring long-term reliability and reducing maintenance in corrosive environments. This combination of material and design delivers a robust, corrosion-resistant fastener that maintains integrity under vibration and stress.
