S-90822A534 Length 5" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 410 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in harsh industrial environments
• Maximum torque transmission through external hex drive design, preventing stripping during high-tension applications
• Self-tapping efficiency with thread forming technology that creates strong, permanent threads without pre-drilling
• Enhanced material penetration featuring specialized drilling tip capable of drilling through up to 0.187" thick steel and sheet metal
• Secure fastening distribution with integrated flange design that provides wider bearing surface and prevents pull-through
• Full-length threading ensures maximum grip strength and uniform stress distribution along the entire 5" length
• Regulatory compliance meets RoHS 3 and REACH standards for environmentally responsible manufacturing and global market acceptance

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These heavy-duty No. 12 tapping screws deliver exceptional value in demanding metal fabrication and assembly operations. The 410 stainless steel composition provides excellent strength and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal applications where environmental exposure is a concern. The thread forming technology creates precise, durable threads that resist vibration loosening, while the integrated drilling tip eliminates the need for separate drilling operations, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs. The external hex drive ensures reliable torque transmission during high-stress installations, and the flanged design distributes clamping force evenly, preventing material deformation in thin-gauge applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These No. 12 size tapping screws feature a 0.216" thread diameter with 14 threads per inch in right-hand orientation, manufactured to BSD tapping screw standards. The 5" fully threaded design with Class 2A thread tolerance ensures precise fitment, while the 0.432" flange diameter provides optimal load distribution. The screws are RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, meeting international environmental and safety regulations for industrial fasteners.
