S-90415A460 Length 1" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Eliminates pre-drilling requirements with a self-drilling tip that penetrates up to 0.106" thick steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal, saving time and labor costs.
• Superior corrosion resistance provided by 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh industrial environments.
• Enhanced driving efficiency with a No. 2 Phillips drive and pan head design, allowing for secure, high-torque installation without slippage.
• Maximum holding power due to the fully threaded design and thread forming (BSD) method, creating strong, vibration-resistant fastenings.
• Broad material compatibility for use in steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal applications, offering versatile fastening solutions.
• Precision-engineered thread profile with 16 threads per inch and 0.19" diameter, ensuring consistent, reliable performance in thread-forming operations.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, making them suitable for global industrial supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10-16 self-drilling tapping screws are engineered to address common industrial fastening challenges, such as the need for rapid assembly and resistance to environmental degradation. The corrosion-resistant 18-8 stainless steel material ensures durability in moist or chemically aggressive settings, while the self-drilling tip eliminates the time-consuming pre-drilling step, significantly speeding up installation in steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal applications. The Phillips No. 2 drive and pan head design provide a secure grip during driving, reducing the risk of cam-out and damage to the fastener or workpiece. By integrating thread forming (BSD) technology and a fully threaded shank, these screws deliver superior clamp load and vibration resistance, making them ideal for HVAC, metal fabrication, and machinery assembly where reliability is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This tapping screw features a thread diameter of 0.19" with approximately 16 threads per inch, conforming to standard inch-series dimensions for precise fit.
