Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This 316 stainless steel tapping screw is engineered to address common challenges in sheet metal fabrication, where corrosion and vibration can compromise fastener integrity. The thread forming Type B design creates strong, permanent threads in ductile materials without chips, reducing cleanup and improving joint reliability. The fully threaded configuration and Phillips pan head ensure uniform clamping force and easy access in confined spaces. Made from 316 stainless steel, it offers exceptional resistance to chemicals, moisture, and temperature variations, making it suitable for outdoor, marine, and industrial equipment. Its compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards further supports use in electronics, automotive, and construction sectors, where environmental and safety regulations are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw adheres to inch system specifications: No. 6-20 thread (0.138" diameter, 20 TPI), 1/4" length, fully threaded with right-hand direction. It meets typical thread forming standards for Type B tapping screws, ensuring precise fit with recommended No. 32 drill bit (0.116" diameter). The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, confirming the absence of restricted substances for industrial safety and environmental protection.
