Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 316 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments and outdoor applications.
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and tooling costs.
• Optimized for 0.025" maximum drilling thickness with No. 32 drill bit compatibility, ensuring precise fit and secure fastening in thin sheet metal.
• Secure Phillips No. 2 drive system provides reliable torque transmission and reduces cam-out during installation.
• Fully threaded shank and pointed tip enable quick starts and consistent thread engagement along the entire length for maximum holding power.
• Standard oval head profile offers a finished appearance while sitting flush with the material surface after installation.
• Full regulatory compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards, ensuring environmental safety and global market acceptance.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 316 Stainless Steel Phillips Oval Head Tapping Screw delivers exceptional performance in sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are critical. The thread forming technology (Type A/AB) eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by cold-forming mating threads directly into the base material, preventing loosening from vibration and thermal cycling. The combination of 18 threads per inch and fully threaded design ensures maximum thread engagement in thin materials up to 0.025" thickness, providing reliable fastening in HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and automotive panels. The oval head with 82° countersink angle creates a flush finish while the Phillips drive enables efficient installation with standard tools, making it ideal for high-volume production environments.
