S-96231A550 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction and brass-colored finish for prolonged service life in industrial environments.
• Superior thread-forming capability with A/AB tapping screw design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes, reducing installation time and labor costs.
• Optimized for sheet metal applications featuring a standard 82° countersink angle for flush seating and maximum material contact.
• Full threading along the 3/4" length ensures consistent, high-strength holding power across the entire fastener engagement.
• Phillips flat head design provides a low-profile, tamper-resistant finish ideal for visible assemblies.
• Precision No. 5 screw size with 0.125" thread diameter and 22 TPI delivers reliable performance in thin-gauge materials up to 0.025" thickness.
• Compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations guarantees safe, environmentally responsible sourcing for global supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 5 zinc-plated steel Phillips flat head tapping screws are engineered to address common challenges in sheet metal fabrication, such as material stripping and inconsistent clamp load. The thread forming technology creates strong, permanent threads in ductile metals without generating chips, minimizing debris in sensitive assemblies. The 82° countersink angle and flat head profile ensure a secure, flush fit that resists vibration loosening in HVAC, electronics enclosures, and automotive panels. With a brass-colored finish, they also offer an aesthetic advantage for visible applications while maintaining corrosion resistance. Fully threaded for uniform stress distribution, these screws provide reliable fastening in thin-section materials where pull-out strength is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This product meets Class 2A thread tolerances with a 0.125" thread diameter and 22 threads per inch. Manufactured as A/AB type tapping screws with right-hand threading and a pointed tip for easy starting. The screws are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring they are free of restricted substances for industrial and international use.
