S-92525A145 Length 2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without chips, reducing installation time and material waste.
• Optimized torque transfer through Phillips No. 3 drive, preventing cam-out and ensuring secure fastening in high-vibration applications.
• Full 2" threading provides maximum grip length and uniform load distribution across the entire fastener engagement.
• Precision installation with blunt tip design and specified 5.5mm (0.2165") drill bit size, eliminating guesswork and ensuring proper hole alignment.
• Standard pan head profile offers low-profile seating and adequate bearing surface for consistent clamping force.
• Environmental compliance with RoHS 3 regulations, making these screws suitable for regulated industries and international markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 1/4"-14 thread forming tapping screws deliver exceptional performance in sheet metal assembly applications where vibration resistance and material integrity are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance, making these Type B tapping screws ideal for outdoor equipment, electrical enclosures, and HVAC systems. The thread forming action cold-forms mating threads in ductile metals, eliminating tapping operations and creating stronger thread engagements than cutting alternatives. With fully threaded design and Phillips drive, these screws ensure maximum pull-out strength and reliable installation in high-volume production environments. The blunt tip facilitates precise alignment while the standardized pan head provides consistent clamping without surface damage.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These thread forming tapping screws feature precise 1/4"-14 thread configuration with right-hand direction and fully threaded shank. Manufactured to Type B tapping screw standards with Class 2A thread tolerances for consistent performance. Compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) ensures environmental responsibility, while the specified 5.5mm drill bit diameter (0.2165") guarantees proper hole preparation for optimal thread engagement and holding power in various sheet metal thicknesses.
