S-92525A146 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for humid or chemically aggressive industrial environments.
• Excellent thread-forming capability with Type B design creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping.
• Secure, reliable fastening achieved through fully threaded shank and 32 TPI precision for maximum grip and vibration resistance.
• Effortless installation with Phillips No. 1 drive and pan head design, allowing for high torque application and reduced cam-out.
• Reduced material cracking thanks to blunt tip design, which displaces material smoothly during installation in sheet metal.
• Long-term durability ensured by rounded pan head profile, distributing clamp load evenly and resisting wear.
• Global compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards, meeting stringent environmental and safety regulations.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 18-8 stainless steel tapping screw is specifically engineered for sheet metal applications where reliability and corrosion resistance are critical. The thread forming Type B design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing assembly time and labor costs while creating strong, strip-resistant threads. The fully threaded shank and 32 TPI precision ensure consistent clamping force across the entire length, preventing loosening under vibration—common in automotive, HVAC, and electronic enclosure assemblies. The Phillips pan head offers a low-profile, secure drive that sits flush, making it ideal for spaces with clearance constraints. Manufactured from durable 18-8 stainless steel, it withstands oxidation and chemical exposure, extending service life in demanding environments.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw adheres to inch system measurements with a size of No. 2 x 5/8", featuring a thread diameter of 0.086" and 32 approximate threads per inch for precise fit. The pan head has a diameter of 0.167" and height of 0.062", compatible with a No. 48 drill bit (0.076" diameter). It is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring it is free of hazardous substances and safe for industrial use globally.
