Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Enhanced torque transmission with Torx Plus IP6 drive for reduced cam-out and improved installation efficiency in high-volume assembly lines.
  • Superior corrosion resistance from zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term durability in various industrial environments.
  • Secure thread forming design with tri-lobe shank for reliable, vibration-resistant fastening in aluminum, brass, and copper materials without pre-drilling.
  • Optimized for soft metals using coarse 0.4mm pitch threads to minimize material stress and prevent stripping in delicate applications.
  • Full threading and blunt tip for consistent grip along the entire 8mm length, enabling precise depth control and uniform clamping force.
  • Pan head profile with 4mm diameter for a low-profile finish that sits flush while distributing load evenly across surfaces.
  • Compliance with global standards including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe, environmentally responsible sourcing for regulated industries.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M2 tapping screws are engineered to address common challenges in fastening aluminum, brass, and copper components, where traditional screws may cause cracking or poor thread engagement. The thread forming action of the tri-lobe shank displaces material rather than cutting it, creating stronger, more durable threads that resist loosening under vibration. Made from zinc-plated steel, they offer excellent corrosion protection in humid or outdoor settings, while the Torx Plus drive ensures maximum torque transfer without slippage, reducing tool wear and assembly errors. Ideal for electronics enclosures, automotive assemblies, and precision machinery, these metric screws deliver reliable performance in space-constrained applications where 8mm length and coarse 0.4mm pitch provide optimal hold in soft metals.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M2 x 0.4mm screw features a right-hand metric thread with coarse spacing and full threading, adhering to standard ISO tolerance classes for precision. The length tolerance is specified as -0.8 to 0mm, ensuring consistent dimensional accuracy. Manufactured in compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, these screws meet stringent environmental and safety requirements for industrial use, supporting responsible sourcing and end-product reliability.
