  • Efficient installation through thread forming technology, creating strong, reliable threads without pre-tapping and reducing assembly time.
  • High torque transmission with a Phillips No. 2 drive, minimizing cam-out and providing secure, stable fastening.
  • Optimized penetration using a drilling tip design that effectively pierces up to 0.09" thickness in steel and sheet metal.
  • Full-length threading for maximum grip and uniform load distribution along the entire 3/8" length.
  • Wide compatibility with standard BSD tapping screw specifications, ensuring consistent performance in various applications.
  • Environmental compliance meeting RoHS 3 standards, guaranteeing safe, lead-free materials for global industrial use.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 6 zinc-plated steel tapping screws are engineered to address common challenges in steel and sheet metal fabrication, where speed, strength, and reliability are critical. The thread forming design eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing labor costs and potential errors while creating robust, strip-resistant threads. The drilling tip efficiently penetrates materials up to 0.09" thick, streamlining assembly in HVAC, automotive, and machinery enclosures. Made from zinc-plated steel, they resist corrosion in harsh conditions, and the Phillips drive ensures easy installation with standard tools. Ideal for high-volume production, these screws enhance workflow efficiency and reduce total cost of ownership in industrial fastening systems.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This product adheres to BSD tapping screw standards with a thread diameter of 0.138" and 20 TPI for precise fit. The fully threaded design and right-hand thread direction provide consistent engagement, while the pan head style offers a low-profile, secure finish. Compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) ensures environmental safety, making these screws suitable for regulated industries. Manufactured to deliver reliable performance in steel and sheet metal applications, they meet industrial demands for durability and precision.
