Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 15 tapping screws with black epoxy coating deliver exceptional performance in steel, insulation, and sheet metal applications. The thread forming design eliminates the need for tapped holes, creating strong, vibration-resistant connections while preventing material cracking. The self-drilling tip penetrates up to 0.047" thickness, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs in high-volume production environments. The Phillips drive system ensures reliable torque transmission, while the partially threaded configuration provides optimal clamping force distribution. These FM Approved screws are engineered to withstand harsh conditions, making them ideal for HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, and structural metal assemblies where corrosion resistance and long-term reliability are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These inch-system screws feature a 0.255" thread diameter with 13 threads per inch and 5" length, manufactured to precise dimensional standards. The thread forming tapping method creates secure, permanent connections without pre-tapped holes. Compliance includes FM Approval for industrial safety standards, ensuring reliable performance in critical applications. The black epoxy coating provides enhanced corrosion protection, while the Phillips drive (No. 3) and pan head design meet industry-standard installation requirements for consistent, professional results.
