• Fully threaded 1-1/2" length provides maximum grip range and holding power across various material thicknesses
• RoHS 3 and REACH compliance guarantees environmental safety and regulatory acceptance for global industrial applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 8 Phillips pan head tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value through its corrosion-resistant 18-8 stainless steel composition and advanced thread forming BSD design. The integrated self-drilling tip eliminates the need for separate drilling operations, significantly reducing assembly time in steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal applications. The fully threaded construction ensures uniform stress distribution and maximum pull-out resistance, while the rounded pan head profile provides a clean, finished appearance without snagging hazards. These features make it ideal for HVAC systems, metal fabrication, electrical enclosures, and industrial equipment where vibration resistance and corrosion protection are critical for long-term performance.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This tapping screw features precise inch measurements with a 0.164" thread diameter and 18 threads per inch in right-hand direction. The BSD thread forming method ensures consistent performance across specified materials. Manufacturing and material compliance includes full adherence to RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental standards, making it suitable for regulated industrial and construction applications worldwide.
