S-90469A105 Length 22 mm DIN 7504 K, ISO 15480 Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, extending service life in demanding industrial environments.
• Superior material displacement and secure fastening through thread forming technology, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads in steel and sheet metal.
• Efficient installation and high torque application enabled by the external hex drive and flanged head design, which also eliminates the need for a separate washer.
• Faster drilling and tapping in a single operation thanks to the integrated drilling tip, designed for a maximum thickness of 0.089".
• Maximum grip and holding power along the entire length with a fully threaded shank, ensuring a reliable and uniform clamp.
• Guaranteed dimensional accuracy and interchangeability as it meets the stringent DIN 7504 K (ISO 15480) standard for thread forming screws.
• Safe for use in regulated industries with full compliance to RoHS 3 and REACH environmental directives.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M3.5 x 22mm flanged tapping screw is engineered to solve critical challenges in metal assembly. Its thread forming action cold-forms the mating material, eliminating chips and producing a stronger, more reliable thread with superior resistance to loosening under vibration, a common failure point in steel and sheet metal applications. The combination of a zinc-plated steel body for corrosion protection and a self-drilling tip significantly reduces assembly time and labor costs by combining drilling and tapping into one step. This makes it an indispensable metric fastener for production lines in automotive, machinery, and electrical enclosure manufacturing, where efficiency, durability, and DIN 7504 K compliance are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw conforms to the dimensional and performance specifications of DIN 7504 K (ISO 15480) for thread forming screws. It features a fully threaded M3.5 shank with a length of 22 mm, an external hex drive (5.5 mm width), and an 8.3 mm flange diameter. The product is manufactured to be RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring it meets current environmental and safety regulations for industrial components.
