Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These black oxide steel tapping screws deliver exceptional engineering value in metal fabrication and assembly operations. The thread forming design creates strong, permanent threads in steel and sheet metal without chip removal, preventing contamination in sensitive applications. The oval head profile with 82° countersink angle provides a flush finish while the Phillips No. 2 drive ensures efficient installation with standard tools. The combination of fully threaded construction and specialized drill tip enables rapid penetration through 0.175" metal thickness, making these BSD tapping screws ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, automotive components, and industrial equipment where vibration resistance and reliable fastening are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These No. 10-16 tapping screws feature precision inch measurements with 0.19" thread diameter and 16 threads per inch. The thread forming (tapping) method follows BSD standards for consistent performance in metal substrates. Manufacturing complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet international compliance requirements for industrial use. The oval head design maintains standard industrial profiles with 0.362" head diameter and 0.176" head height for uniform installation across applications.
