S-92525A148 Length 1" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in humid or demanding industrial environments.
• Excellent holding power through thread forming technology, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads in sheet metal without pre-tapped holes.
• Optimized drive efficiency with Phillips No. 2 drive, providing secure tool engagement and reducing cam-out during installation.
• Full-length threading along the 1" length maximizes grip and distributes load evenly across the entire fastened joint.
• Precise installation compatibility with No. 32 drill bit (0.116" diameter), ensuring proper fit and reducing material stress during thread formation.
• Enhanced durability with right-hand blunt tip design, preventing cross-threading and extending fastener service life.
• Regulatory compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use across global industrial applications.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws deliver exceptional performance in sheet metal assemblies where corrosion resistance and vibration durability are critical. The thread forming (Type B) design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes by displacing material to create strong, permanent threads that withstand dynamic loads. The Phillips pan head provides a low-profile, secure fastening solution that won't snag on equipment, while the fully threaded shank ensures maximum engagement in thin-gauge metals. Ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, and automotive components, these screws solve common challenges of strip-out and loosening in high-stress applications, reducing maintenance costs and improving assembly reliability.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 6-20 x 1" tapping screw features a 0.138" thread diameter with 20 threads per inch, manufactured to standard inch system tolerances for precision fit. The thread forming (Type B) design complies with industry standards for self-tapping fasteners in sheet metal applications. All components and manufacturing processes are fully RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliant, meeting the latest environmental and safety regulations for industrial fasteners.
