Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws are engineered for demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and holding power are critical. The thread forming Type A design creates strong, permanent threads without chip removal, eliminating debris in sensitive assemblies. With a Phillips flat head and standard 82° countersink, they sit flush to prevent snagging while providing reliable fastening in HVAC, electronics enclosures, and automotive panels. The combination of 0.138" thread diameter and 18 TPI ensures optimal grip in thin materials up to 0.025" thickness, making them ideal for precision manufacturing where vibration resistance and durability are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 6 x 7/8" tapping screw features a 0.138" thread diameter with 18 threads per inch and fully threaded shank for maximum engagement. It requires a No. 32 drill bit (0.116" diameter) and standard 82° countersink angle for proper installation. The screw complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring adherence to industrial safety and environmental standards for hazardous substance restrictions.
