S-95829A275 Length 1 1/2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Tamper-resistant hex drive enhances security by deterring unauthorized removal in sensitive industrial environments.
• 18-8 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability for long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.
• Thread forming design creates strong, secure threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing installation time and improving holding power.
• Fully threaded shank ensures maximum grip and uniform load distribution across the entire length for reliable fastening.
• Standard flat head profile with 82° countersink angle allows for a flush, clean finish that minimizes protrusion and snagging risks.
• RoHS 3 and REACH compliance guarantees environmental safety and regulatory adherence for global industrial applications.
• Optimized for No. 21 drill bit simplifies installation with precise drilling guidance, reducing errors and improving efficiency.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10 sheet metal tapping screws are engineered to address common challenges in industrial assembly, such as vibration loosening and corrosion in metal frameworks. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers superior resistance to rust and oxidation, making them ideal for outdoor or high-moisture environments. With a thread forming (Type A/AB) design, they eliminate the need for separate tapping operations, cutting down labor costs and speeding up production lines in sheet metal applications. The tamper-resistant hex drive adds an essential layer of security for equipment enclosures and public infrastructure, preventing tampering while maintaining easy authorized access. This combination of durability, security, and efficiency ensures reliable performance in HVAC systems, machinery panels, and electronic enclosures where consistent fastening integrity is critical.
