S-90065A294 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Efficient thread forming technology creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping requirements
• Optimal flush mounting with standard flat head profile and 82° countersink angle for smooth surface finishes
• Maximum driving efficiency through No. 3 Phillips drive that prevents cam-out and ensures secure installation
• Enhanced holding power from full threading along the entire 3/4" length for superior grip in sheet metal applications
• Reliable material compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH environmental standards for global industrial use
• Precision fit with standardized No. 12 screw size and 0.216" thread diameter for consistent performance

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws are engineered specifically for demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming Type A design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, significantly reducing assembly time and labor costs in high-volume manufacturing. The fully threaded configuration ensures maximum thread engagement throughout the material thickness, providing superior pull-out resistance in thin-gauge metals. The 82° countersink angle and flat head profile create a flush finish that prevents snagging and maintains aerodynamic surfaces in HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and automotive components. The combination of stainless steel material and precision threading (11 threads per inch) delivers reliable performance in vibration-prone environments where fastener loosening is a common concern.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These Type A thread forming screws feature a No. 12 size with 0.216" thread diameter and 11 threads per inch, designed for use with 3/16" drill bits in materials up to 0.025" thickness. The right-hand threaded fasteners provide standard Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent installation performance. Manufacturing complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet current industrial compliance requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
