S-95901A240 Length 3/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 410 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for demanding industrial environments
• Exceptional holding power through thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads in sheet metal
• Efficient installation with Phillips No. 2 drive for reliable torque transfer and reduced cam-out
• Optimized head design featuring a pan head profile that provides excellent bearing surface without protruding
• Precision compatibility with No. 29 drill bit (0.136" diameter) for perfect fit in sheet metal applications
• Full regulatory compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for environmentally responsible manufacturing
• Complete thread coverage with fully threaded 3/4" length for maximum engagement and pull-out resistance

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 8-18 TPI tapping screws are engineered specifically for sheet metal applications where reliability and corrosion resistance are critical. The 410 Stainless Steel composition provides excellent durability in harsh environments, while the thread forming (Type B) design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes, creating stronger thread engagement by displacing material rather than removing it. The Phillips drive system ensures secure installation with common tools, and the pan head configuration offers a low-profile finish that sits flush against surfaces. These features combine to solve common industrial challenges including vibration loosening, material fatigue, and environmental degradation in metal fabrication, HVAC systems, and electronic enclosures.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 8-18 x 3/4" tapping screw features a 0.164" thread diameter with 18 threads per inch and right-hand threading. Manufactured to Type B thread forming standards with Class 2A thread tolerances, the screw is designed for use with No. 29 drill bits (0.136" diameter). The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental responsibility and workplace safety standards are met for industrial applications.
