S-94209A355 M3 x 6 mm DIN 7500 C Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior material resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for excellent corrosion protection in demanding industrial environments
• Enhanced thread-forming capability with tri-lobe shank design creates secure, vibration-resistant threads in aluminum, brass, and copper without pre-tapping
• Optimized drive performance featuring Phillips No. 1 drive for reliable torque transmission and reduced cam-out during installation
• Full-thread engagement along the entire 6mm length ensures maximum holding power and uniform stress distribution
• Precision dimensional control with tight length tolerance (±0.375mm) guarantees consistent performance in automated assembly processes
• Industry-standard compliance meeting DIN 7500 C specifications for reliable thread-forming screw performance and quality assurance
• Environmental responsibility with RoHS 3 and REACH compliance, ensuring safe use in regulated applications and markets

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3 thread forming screws with 0.5mm coarse pitch are engineered specifically for creating strong, permanent threads in softer metals including aluminum, brass, and copper. The tri-lobe shank cross-section displaces material during installation, forming precise mating threads that eliminate the need for separate tapping operations and reduce assembly time by up to 50%. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining the high tensile strength required for vibration-prone applications. The Phillips drive system ensures compatibility with standard industrial drivers, making these metric tapping screws ideal for high-volume manufacturing in electronics, automotive components, and machinery assembly where reliability and speed are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance
