S-95829A260 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Enhanced security against unauthorized removal through tamper-resistant hex drive design, protecting your equipment and assemblies
• Efficient thread forming action that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time
• Optimal material displacement with pointed tip and fully threaded design for secure fastening in thin sheet metal applications
• Clean, flush installation with standard 82° flat head profile that sits smoothly with sheet metal surfaces
• Reliable drive engagement with 5/32" hex drive size providing positive torque transmission during installation
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe industrial use

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10 tapping screws deliver exceptional engineering value in sheet metal applications where vibration resistance and security are paramount. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor equipment, electrical enclosures, and HVAC systems. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating stronger threads by displacing material rather than removing it. This results in superior pull-out strength and vibration resistance compared to conventional screws. The tamper-resistant hex drive ensures critical assemblies remain secure in public access areas or high-theft environments. With fully threaded design and precise 0.19" thread diameter, these screws maintain consistent clamping force throughout the entire fastened joint.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These tapping screws feature precision thread forming with 0.19" thread diameter and 12 threads per inch following standard inch measurements. The A/AB screw type ensures proper thread engagement in sheet metal applications requiring No. 21 drill bit (0.159" diameter) for optimal performance. Manufacturing complies with industry standards for flat head profile with 82° countersink angle and right hand thread direction. Full compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations ensures environmental safety and industrial suitability.
