S-95639A367 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

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.
• Secure, flush-mount finish provided by the standard oval head and Phillips No. 2 drive, preventing snagging and ensuring a professional appearance.
• Full 5/8" threading offers maximum grip length and holding power in materials up to 0.025" thickness.
• Reliable performance in thin materials with a pointed tip and 15 threads per inch for precise, secure fastening in sheet metal.
• Compliance with global environmental standards, including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe use in regulated industries and products.
• Consistent dimensional accuracy with a 0.164" thread diameter and right-hand threading, ensuring compatibility and easy replacement.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 8 Phillips oval head tapping screws are engineered to address common challenges in sheet metal assembly, such as material stripping, corrosion, and installation inefficiency. The 316 stainless steel provides excellent resistance to chemicals and moisture, extending the lifespan of enclosures, HVAC systems, and electronic chassis. The thread forming (Type A/AB) design displaces material rather than cutting it, resulting in higher thread strength and vibration resistance. This is critical for maintaining integrity in dynamic or load-bearing applications. The combination of a fully threaded shank and precise 82° countersink angle ensures a tight, flush fit, reducing the risk of loosening under stress and improving the overall aesthetic of the finished product.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a No. 8 size with a 0.164" thread diameter and 15 threads per inch in a right-hand direction. The oval head has a diameter of 0.312" and height of 0.152", designed for standard countersunk holes. It is fully threaded with a pointed tip and complies with common inch-system standards for thread forming tapping screws. The product is manufactured to be RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, meeting stringent environmental and safety regulations for industrial use.
