S-90315A522 Length 2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Corrosion-resistant performance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting reliability in harsh industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and tooling costs.
• Secure Phillips No. 2 drive provides excellent torque transmission and prevents cam-out during high-torque applications.
• Optimized oval head profile with 82° countersink angle ensures flush mounting and clean aesthetic finish in sheet metal assemblies.
• Precision dimensional accuracy with No. 10 screw size and 2" length delivers consistent performance across production runs.
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for safe use in regulated industries.
• Compatible with standard No. 21 drill bits (0.159") for simplified hole preparation and reduced inventory complexity.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel oval head tapping screws are engineered specifically for demanding sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by cold-forming mating threads directly into the base material, creating superior pull-out resistance compared to conventional fastening methods. The Phillips drive system ensures reliable installation in high-volume production environments, while the fully threaded design provides consistent clamping force along the entire fastener length. Ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, and industrial machinery where vibration resistance and long-term performance are critical requirements.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to precise dimensional standards with No. 10 thread diameter (0.19"), 12 threads per inch, and 2" length. Features standard oval head profile with 0.362" head diameter and A/AB tapping screw type classification. Fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations. The right-hand thread direction and pointed tip facilitate easy starting and proper alignment during installation into pre-drilled holes using No. 21 drill bits.
