S-92525A161 Length 7/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Efficient thread forming technology creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without requiring pre-tapped holes
• Optimized drive engagement with Phillips No. 3 drive style ensures secure installation and reduces cam-out risk
• Maximum holding power through fully threaded design that distributes load evenly across the entire fastener length
• Reliable regulatory compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards for environmentally responsible manufacturing
• Precision dimensional accuracy with standardized pan head profile and consistent 14 threads per inch for uniform performance
• Enhanced installation efficiency with blunt tip design that aligns perfectly with recommended 3/16" drill bit size

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 18-8 stainless steel tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value in sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and structural integrity are paramount. The thread forming Type B design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads directly in the base material. The fully threaded configuration ensures maximum engagement depth and superior pull-out resistance, while the Phillips pan head provides a low-profile finish ideal for applications with limited clearance. Engineered specifically for sheet metal fabrication, this fastener solves common installation challenges by combining precise dimensional control with advanced thread forming technology that prevents material cracking and ensures reliable, long-term performance in demanding industrial environments.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 12 x 7/8" tapping screw features precision thread dimensions with 0.216" thread diameter and 14 threads per inch, ensuring consistent performance across applications.
