S-93406A316 Length 1" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 316 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments and outdoor applications.
• Enhanced holding power and reduced slipping thanks to the wide truss head design, distributing load over a larger surface area.
• Efficient, high-torque installation provided by the No. 3 Phillips drive, minimizing cam-out and tool wear.
• Strong, durable threads formed by the thread forming (A/AB) tapping method, creating a secure, vibration-resistant fit in sheet metal.
• Simplified alignment and faster starts with a fully threaded, pointed tip design for precise placement in pre-drilled holes.
• Optimized for 5.5mm (0.2165") drill bits, ensuring a perfect fit and maximum thread engagement in materials up to 0.025" thick.
• Guaranteed environmental and safety compliance, meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for use in regulated industries.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 14 tapping screws are precision-engineered to solve common fastening challenges in sheet metal fabrication and assembly. The thread forming technology displaces material rather than cutting it, resulting in stronger, more vibration-resistant connections that are less prone to loosening under stress. Manufactured from 316 stainless steel, they offer exceptional resistance to corrosion from chemicals, saltwater, and industrial atmospheres, making them a reliable, long-term solution for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and outdoor equipment. The combination of a Phillips truss head and a fully threaded, pointed tip ensures quick, straightforward installation with a secure clamp, reducing assembly time and improving overall structural integrity in demanding metalworking applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This fastener features a No. 14 screw size with a 0.242" thread diameter and 10 threads per inch, conforming to standard inch measurements. The thread forming (Type A/AB) tapping method and fully threaded design ensure consistent performance and high pull-out strength. This product is manufactured to industry standards and is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations.
