Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, extending service life in demanding industrial environments.
  • Efficient, self-tapping installation via thread forming BSD design, creating strong, permanent threads without pre-drilling in steel and sheet metal.
  • High-torque driving capability with a Phillips No. 2 drive, reducing cam-out and ensuring secure, efficient fastening.
  • Enhanced material penetration with a dedicated drill tip (No. 2 type), capable of drilling through up to 0.09" thickness for faster assembly.
  • Reliable, full-length grip with a 5/16" fully threaded shank and 20 TPI, providing maximum holding power across the entire fastener length.
  • Broad industrial compliance by meeting RoHS 3 standards, ensuring environmental safety and suitability for regulated global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 6 zinc-plated steel tapping screws are engineered to solve critical fastening challenges in steel and sheet metal assemblies. Their thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing labor time and the risk of cross-threading. The zinc plating provides a durable barrier against rust and corrosion, essential for longevity in industrial or outdoor settings. The integrated drill tip allows for direct penetration into materials up to 0.09" thick, streamlining the installation process in HVAC, automotive, and machinery fabrication. Combined with a Phillips drive for common tool compatibility, these screws deliver reliable performance, reduced assembly costs, and enhanced joint integrity in high-vibration applications.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This product features a 0.138" thread diameter with 20 TPI and a 5/16" length, manufactured to standard inch system tolerances for consistent performance. It conforms to the BSD tapping screw type specification for thread forming applications. The screw is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations, ensuring it is free of hazardous substances and suitable for industrial use worldwide.
