S-95638A324 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Tamper-resistant Torx T8 drive provides enhanced security against unauthorized removal in sensitive applications
• 18-8 stainless steel construction delivers excellent corrosion resistance for long-lasting performance in harsh environments
• Thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without chip removal
• Fully threaded shank ensures maximum grip and holding power throughout the entire engagement length
• Pointed tip design facilitates easier starting and faster installation in pre-drilled holes
• Rounded button head profile offers a low-profile finish that reduces snagging and provides a clean appearance
• Optimized for 0.0938" drill bits with 0.025" maximum drilling thickness for precise sheet metal applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 4-24 thread forming tapping screws are specifically engineered for demanding sheet metal applications where reliability and security are paramount. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides exceptional corrosion resistance, making these fasteners ideal for outdoor equipment, electrical enclosures, HVAC systems, and industrial machinery exposed to moisture or chemicals. The tamper-resistant Torx T8 drive system prevents unauthorized access in public spaces or high-security installations, while the thread forming design creates stronger, more durable connections by cold-forming mating threads without generating metal chips that could cause electrical shorts or contamination. The combination of fully threaded construction and pointed tip ensures quick, secure fastening in thin materials up to 0.025" thickness, reducing installation time and improving production efficiency.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These precision-engineered fasteners feature No. 4-24 thread size with right-hand threading and Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent performance. Manufactured to A/AB tapping screw standards with fully threaded configuration and 0.112" thread diameter. The screws are compatible with standard 3/32" drill bits (0.0938" diameter) and designed for maximum drilling thickness of 0.025". Constructed from 18-8 stainless steel that complies with industry standards for corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, ensuring reliable performance in various industrial environments.
