S-90054A425 Length 2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc plating that protects against rust and extends service life in demanding industrial environments
• Efficient thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing installation time and labor costs
• Secure, high-torque fastening enabled by the external hex/slotted drive that prevents stripping and ensures reliable connections
• Enhanced load distribution through the integrated flange that minimizes surface damage and improves joint integrity
• Full threading along the 2" length provides maximum grip and pull-out resistance in sheet metal applications
• Precision 10 threads per inch delivers consistent engagement and reliable performance in various metal thicknesses
• Compliance with international safety standards including RoHS 3 and REACH ensures environmental responsibility and workplace safety

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These zinc-plated steel tapping screws are specifically engineered for sheet metal applications where durability and installation efficiency are paramount. The thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in pre-drilled holes without requiring separate tapping operations, significantly reducing assembly time and costs. The external hex/slotted drive accommodates both manual and power tool installation while resisting cam-out during high-torque applications. The flanged head design distributes clamping force over a wider area, preventing material deformation in thin-gauge metals. These features make these 5/16" tapping screws ideal for HVAC systems, metal fabrication, industrial machinery, and construction projects where reliable metal-to-metal fastening is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These tapping screws feature a 0.313" thread diameter with 10 threads per inch and fully threaded design for maximum engagement. The hex head measures 1/2" width with 0.285" height for standard tool compatibility. Manufactured from zinc-plated steel with thread forming (Type A/AB) technology, these screws comply with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet current industrial safety and environmental standards for professional use.
