Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 316 stainless steel tapping screw delivers exceptional performance in demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance is critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads that won't loosen under stress. The undercut flat head profile ensures a flush finish that prevents snagging while maintaining structural integrity. Engineered for use with a No. 44 drill bit (0.086"), this Phillips flat head screw provides reliable fastening in thin gauge materials up to 0.025" thickness, making it ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and precision metal fabrication where corrosion resistant screws are essential for long-term durability.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 4-24 x 1/4" tapping screw features right-hand threads with 24 TPI and full threading for maximum grip. Manufactured to precise dimensional standards with Class 2A thread tolerances, the screw ensures consistent performance across applications. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, meeting the latest industrial safety and environmental standards. Designed specifically for sheet metal fastening with recommended No. 44 drill bit preparation and 82° countersink angle for optimal installation.
