S-98903A314 Length 1" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Superior material penetration through thread forming technology that creates stronger, more reliable threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Optimal flush installation with the 82° countersink angle and undercut flat head design that sits perfectly flush with material surfaces
• Maximum driving efficiency with No. 2 Phillips drive that provides secure tool engagement and reduces cam-out during installation
• Enhanced holding power through fully threaded design that ensures consistent grip along the entire 1" length in sheet metal applications
• Precision fit and alignment with Class 2A thread tolerances and consistent 12 TPI spacing for reliable performance in metal assemblies
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industrial applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10 Phillips flat head tapping screws are specifically engineered to address common challenges in sheet metal fabrication and assembly. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making these thread forming screws ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor elements. The undercut flat head profile combined with the precise 82° countersink angle ensures a clean, flush finish that eliminates protrusions and improves aesthetic quality in visible applications. For industrial professionals working with sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness, these screws deliver reliable performance without the need for pre-tapped holes, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs while maintaining maximum holding power in demanding environments.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These tapping screws feature precision Class 2A thread tolerances with a 0.19" thread diameter and 12 threads per inch spacing. The thread forming design (Type A) creates mating threads in materials without chip removal. Manufactured to industry standards for flat head tapping screws, these fasteners are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring they meet the latest environmental and safety requirements for industrial applications.
