Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 18-8 stainless steel tapping screws deliver exceptional engineering value in sheet metal fabrication and assembly operations. The thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations by cold-forming mating threads directly into the base material, creating stronger connections than cut threads. The Phillips pan head design with No. 2 drive size offers reliable torque transmission while maintaining a low-profile appearance. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant 18-8 stainless steel, these fasteners maintain integrity in demanding environments where moisture or chemicals are present. The fully threaded configuration and 5/8" length provide maximum engagement in thin materials, making them ideal for HVAC systems, electronic enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where vibration resistance and pull-out strength are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 10-16 thread forming screw features a 0.19" thread diameter with 16 threads per inch in right-hand orientation. The pan head measures 0.373" in diameter with 0.133" height, designed for standard Phillips No. 2 drive tools. Manufactured to Type B thread forming specifications for sheet metal applications, these screws are compatible with No. 21 drill bits (0.159" diameter). The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring adherence to international standards for hazardous substance restrictions.
