S-94195A190 Length 2 1/2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Eliminates pre-drilling requirements with integrated drill tip that penetrates up to 0.15" thick steel, stainless steel, and sheet metal
• Superior corrosion resistance through 410 Stainless Steel construction for extended service life in demanding environments
• Optimized torque transfer with Phillips drive design that reduces cam-out and ensures secure installation
• Maximum holding power achieved through fully threaded design that provides complete engagement along the entire 2-1/2" length
• Streamlined installation process with thread-forming BSD design that creates strong, permanent threads in base materials
• Clean finished appearance with standard 82° flat head profile that sits flush with mounted surfaces
• Reliable industrial compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH environmental standards for safe usage

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 410 Stainless Steel tapping screws deliver exceptional value in metal fabrication and assembly operations where time efficiency and structural integrity are paramount. The combination of self-drilling capability and thread-forming BSD design eliminates multiple processing steps, significantly reducing labor costs while creating durable, vibration-resistant connections. The fully threaded configuration ensures uniform stress distribution across the entire engagement length, preventing loosening in high-vibration applications common in sheet metal assemblies, steel framing, and stainless steel equipment manufacturing. The Phillips drive system provides reliable torque transmission during installation, while the corrosion-resistant 410 stainless steel material maintains fastener integrity in environments exposed to moisture and temperature variations.
