Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Self-tapping design eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes, saving time and labor costs in assembly operations.
  • Zinc-plated steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term durability in various industrial environments.
  • Coarse UNC threads and Type F thread cutting profile deliver superior holding power and reliable fastening in materials like aluminum, brass, and cast iron.
  • Phillips No. 1 drive allows for efficient installation with common tools, reducing the risk of cam-out and improving operator control.
  • Fully threaded blunt tip design ensures maximum thread engagement and consistent clamping force along the entire fastener length.
  • Compliance with ASME B18.6.3 standards guarantees dimensional accuracy, interchangeability, and performance reliability for professional applications.
  • RoHS 3 compliance ensures the screws meet environmental regulations, making them suitable for use in regulated industries and global supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These 2-56 UNC thread cutting screws are engineered to address common challenges in fastening non-ferrous metals and sheet metal. The zinc-plated steel material offers a robust balance of strength and corrosion resistance, while the Type F thread cutting design with coarse UNC threads efficiently forms mating threads in ductile materials like aluminum, brass, and cast iron, preventing stripping and ensuring vibration-resistant connections. The pan head with Phillips No. 1 drive provides a low-profile, secure fit that is ideal for applications where space is limited and reliable torque transmission is critical. This combination makes them a trusted solution for industrial assembly, HVAC systems, and electronic enclosures, reducing installation time and enhancing joint integrity.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These screws feature a 2-56 UNC coarse thread with standard Class 2A dimensional tolerances, ensuring precise fit and interchangeability. The thread cutting Type F design is optimized for use with a No. 49 drill bit (0.073" diameter) in specified materials. Manufactured in compliance with ASME B18.6.3 specifications and RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations, they meet rigorous industry standards for performance, safety, and environmental responsibility.
