S-90065A252 Length 1 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and labor costs.
• Maximum holding power through full threading along the entire 1-3/4" length, providing secure fastening in thin materials.
• Streamlined installation with Phillips No. 2 drive and standard 82° flat head profile for flush mounting and easy tool engagement.
• Precision compatibility with No. 21 drill bits (0.159" diameter) for optimal hole preparation and secure fastening in materials up to 0.025" thickness.
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries.
• Reliable performance with Type A thread forming specification and right-hand threading for consistent, vibration-resistant connections.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws deliver exceptional value in sheet metal fabrication and assembly operations. The thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, significantly reducing production time while creating strong, strip-resistant threads in thin gauge materials. The fully threaded No. 10-12 configuration ensures maximum engagement throughout the material thickness, preventing loosening under vibration and thermal cycling. The standard 82° flat head profile with Phillips drive provides flush mounting capabilities ideal for applications where surface clearance is critical, while the corrosion-resistant stainless steel construction maintains integrity in demanding environments including outdoor, marine, and chemical exposure settings.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This Type A thread forming screw features precision No. 10-12 thread with 0.19" diameter and right-hand threading conforming to industry standards. The flat head design incorporates an 82° countersink angle for proper seating in prepared holes. Manufacturing and material compliance includes RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and restricted substance adherence for industrial applications.
