Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These thread cutting tapping screws solve critical fastening challenges in metalworking and manufacturing applications. The black zinc-plated steel construction provides enhanced corrosion protection where moisture or chemical exposure is a concern, while the UNC coarse threading and cutting tip design enable direct installation into aluminum, brass, cast iron, and sheet metal without pre-tapping. This eliminates secondary operations and reduces assembly costs. The combination of thread cutting technology with standardized 1/4"-20 thread size ensures reliable performance in HVAC systems, electrical enclosures, automotive components, and industrial machinery where vibration resistance and long-term holding power are essential.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to ASME B18.6.3 specifications with UNC Class 2A thread tolerances, these screws feature a 1/4"-20 coarse thread configuration, 1/2" length, and pan head design with Phillips No. 3 drive. The product complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) environmental regulations and is engineered for use with No. 1 drill bit (0.228" diameter) as specified for proper thread cutting installation in various metal substrates.
