S-92525A311 Length 1/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in demanding industrial environments
• Excellent thread-forming capability creates permanent, vibration-resistant threads in sheet metal without requiring pre-tapped holes
• Optimized Phillips drive design ensures secure tool engagement and reduces cam-out during installation
• Pan head configuration provides a low-profile finish with good bearing surface for reliable clamping force
• Precise dimensional accuracy with standardized thread forming Type B geometry for consistent performance across applications
• Environmental compliance assurance meets RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for safe use in regulated industries
• Full threading design maximizes grip length and holding power throughout the entire fastener length

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws deliver exceptional value in sheet metal applications where corrosion resistance and vibration durability are critical. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, creating strong, permanent threads that won't loosen under dynamic loads. The Type B thread form with 20 threads per inch provides optimal engagement in thin materials, while the blunt tip design ensures precise starting without damaging material surfaces. Engineered for industrial sheet metal assembly, these fasteners combine the chemical resistance of stainless steel with the installation efficiency of Phillips drive systems, making them ideal for HVAC, electronic enclosures, and automotive components where reliability and regulatory compliance are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 6 x 1/4" tapping screw features standard inch measurements with 0.138" thread diameter and fully threaded right-hand configuration. Manufactured to precise dimensional standards for thread forming Type B applications, it requires a No. 32 drill bit (0.116" diameter) for proper hole preparation. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory acceptance for industrial use across global markets.
