Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh environments and long-term reliability.
  • Efficient thread forming design (Type A) creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time.
  • Secure, flush-mount finish thanks to the 82° countersink angle and undercut flat head, preventing snagging and providing a smooth surface.
  • Optimized for sheet metal applications, designed to handle a maximum drilling thickness of 0.025" for consistent performance.
  • Excellent drive stability with a Phillips No. 3 drive, minimizing cam-out and ensuring reliable torque transfer during installation.
  • Full threading along the 1/2" length provides maximum grip and holding power across the entire fastener.
  • Compliance with major environmental regulations (RoHS 3 & REACH), ensuring safety and suitability for global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 14 Phillips flat head tapping screw is engineered to solve critical challenges in sheet metal assembly. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it perfect for outdoor equipment, HVAC systems, and electronic enclosures. Its thread forming Type A design displaces material to create robust internal threads, eliminating the need for a separate tapping operation and reducing the risk of loose fittings. The undercut flat head and 82° countersink angle ensure a flush, professional finish that minimizes protrusion and improves aerodynamic or aesthetic profiles. With a specified 0.2165" drill bit size, it ensures precise hole preparation, enhancing joint integrity and speeding up high-volume production lines.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a No. 14 size with a 1/2" length and 14 TPI fully threaded right-hand design. It adheres to standard inch measurements and is designed for use with a 5.5 mm (0.2165") drill bit. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring it is free from hazardous substances and suitable for industrial and consumer applications requiring high environmental and safety standards.
