S-90286A245 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior holding power with 0.414" flange and 0.313" hex head design for enhanced grip and resistance to loosening under vibration
• Effortless installation thanks to the pointed tip and thread forming design that creates strong threads without pre-tapping in sheet metal
• Optimized for thin materials with a maximum drilling thickness of 0.025", ideal for precision sheet metal assemblies
• High torque capability provided by the external hex drive, allowing for secure tightening with standard tools
• Full thread engagement along the 3/4" length ensures maximum pull-out strength and uniform stress distribution
• Precision compatibility with No. 21 drill bit (0.159" diameter) for accurate pilot hole preparation
• Regulatory compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in industrial and export applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 10-12 thread forming tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value for sheet metal applications where vibration resistance and reliable fastening are critical. The Type A thread forming design displaces material rather than cutting it, creating stronger threads that won't strip under dynamic loads. The combination of flanged hex head and fully threaded construction provides superior clamping force distribution, preventing material distortion in thin gauge metals up to 0.025" thickness. These sheet metal fasteners are engineered to solve common industrial challenges including assembly efficiency, joint integrity, and long-term performance in demanding environments such as electrical enclosures, HVAC systems, and automotive components.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This thread forming tapping screw features a No. 10 size with 12 threads per inch and 0.19" thread diameter, manufactured to standard inch dimensions. The fully threaded design with right-hand thread direction ensures consistent performance across the entire 3/4" length. Compliance includes RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, meeting international environmental and safety standards for industrial fasteners used in global supply chains.
