S-90054A520 Length 2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term durability in harsh industrial environments
• Enhanced torque transmission through the external hex/slotted drive design, allowing for secure installation with standard tools
• Efficient thread forming capability that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping, reducing assembly time
• Optimized load distribution thanks to the integrated 0.78" flange, preventing surface damage and maintaining joint integrity
• Full-length threading provides maximum grip along the entire 2" length, offering superior holding power in various material thicknesses
• Precision compatibility with 21/64" drill bits and 0.025" maximum drilling thickness, ensuring perfect fit for sheet metal applications
• Regulatory compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards, meeting strict industrial safety and environmental requirements

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 3/8"-9 TPI zinc-plated steel flanged hex head tapping screws deliver exceptional performance in demanding sheet metal applications where vibration resistance and permanent fastening are critical. The thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating stronger threads that won't loosen under stress. The external hex/slotted drive accommodates both manual and power tools, while the integrated flange distributes clamping force evenly to prevent material deformation. Ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, and industrial machinery assembly, these A/AB type tapping screws provide reliable fastening solutions that withstand rigorous operational conditions without compromising performance.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to precise dimensional standards with fully threaded 3/8" diameter and 9 TPI right-hand threads for consistent performance. The thread forming tapping method ensures secure fastening in sheet metal up to 0.025" thickness when used with recommended 21/64" drill bits. Compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, meeting international environmental and safety standards for industrial components.
