Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These zinc-plated steel tapping screws are engineered specifically for sheet metal applications where reliable fastening and corrosion resistance are critical. The thread forming design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes, creating strong mating threads that resist vibration loosening and provide superior pull-out strength. The 82° countersink angle and flat head profile ensure flush mounting in sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness, while the Phillips drive offers efficient installation with reduced tool slippage. The combination of fully threaded design and A/AB tapping screw type provides maximum thread engagement, making these industrial fasteners ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, automotive components, and machinery assemblies where vibration resistance and long-term durability are essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These No. 12 x 1-1/2" tapping screws feature precision 0.216" thread diameter with 11 threads per inch and standard flat head profile with 82° countersink angle. Manufactured to industry standards for thread forming screws with A/AB tapping screw type and right-hand threading. The screws are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental responsibility and workplace safety standards are met for industrial applications.
