S-92525A315 Length 3/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance from 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh environments
• Efficient thread forming capability with Type B design that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal without pre-tapping
• Optimized drive performance with No. 2 Phillips pan head for secure tool engagement and reduced cam-out during installation
• Precise installation compatibility with standard No. 32 drill bit (0.116") preparation for consistent, reliable fastening results
• Full-length threading provides maximum grip strength and uniform load distribution across the entire fastener length
• Blunt tip design prevents material splitting while ensuring proper alignment in sheet metal applications
• Regulatory compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in industrial and manufacturing environments

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 6-20 thread forming screw delivers exceptional value in sheet metal fabrication and assembly operations. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides outstanding resistance to corrosion and oxidation, making it ideal for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or outdoor elements. The Type B thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by cold-forming mating threads directly into the base material, resulting in stronger thread engagement and reduced installation time. The Phillips pan head with rounded profile offers a low-profile finish while the blunt tip prevents material damage during insertion. These tapping screws are particularly valuable in HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where reliable metal-to-metal fastening is critical for structural integrity and long-term performance.
