S-95829A215 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced security with tamper-resistant hex drive design to prevent unauthorized removal in sensitive applications
• Superior corrosion resistance from 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh environments
• Efficient thread-forming capability creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping requirements
• Optimal material compatibility with standard No. 29 drill bit preparation and 82° countersink angle for precise installation
• Maximum thread engagement through fully threaded design ensures superior holding power across the entire 3/4" length
• Reliable regulatory compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for environmentally responsible manufacturing
• Secure flat head profile provides flush mounting while maintaining tamper-resistant security features

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 8-15 thread forming tapping screw delivers exceptional value in sheet metal applications where security and durability are paramount. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor equipment, electrical enclosures, and industrial machinery exposed to moisture or chemicals. The tamper-resistant hex drive with 5/32" drive size prevents unauthorized access in public facilities, transportation equipment, and secure installations. The thread forming technology (A/AB type) creates stronger thread engagement in sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness, eliminating the need for separate tapping operations and reducing installation time. The combination of 0.164" thread diameter with 15 threads per inch ensures optimal pull-out resistance while the flat head design maintains a clean, flush surface finish.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This security screw features precise inch system measurements with No. 8 screw size, 3/4" length, and 0.164" thread diameter with 15 threads per inch. The thread forming tapping method (Type A/AB) and right-hand thread direction follow industry standards for sheet metal fastening. Manufacturing complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental responsibility and workplace safety. Installation requires standard No. 29 drill bit (0.136" diameter) with 82° countersink angle for proper seating in sheet metal applications.
