• Enhanced corrosion resistance from the zinc plating protects against rust, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial environments.
• High driving efficiency and reduced cam-out with the Phillips No. 2 drive and tri-lobe shank design for secure installation and minimal tool slippage.
• Excellent material compatibility with a pan head and blunt tip designed specifically for reliable fastening in softer metal substrates.
• Guanteed dimensional consistency with a length tolerance of ±0.45mm, ensuring predictable performance and fit in your assemblies.
• Full compliance with international standards including DIN 7500 C, providing assurance of quality and performance for engineering applications.
• Environmentally responsible manufacturing that meets RoHS 3 and REACH regulations, making them suitable for global supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M5 x 0.8mm thread forming screw is engineered to solve common fastening challenges in metalworking. The zinc-plated steel construction offers a robust balance of strength and corrosion protection, essential for components exposed to varying environmental conditions. Its thread forming (tapping) method and tri-lobe shank cross-section displace material to form precise metric coarse threads, eliminating the need for pre-tapped holes and reducing assembly time in materials like aluminum, brass, and copper. The Phillips drive and pan head provide a flush finish and efficient torque transfer, making these tapping screws ideal for electronics enclosures, automotive components, and machinery where vibration resistance and a clean appearance are critical. By integrating these features, the screw delivers reliable metal fastening with high clamp load retention.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw conforms to the dimensional and performance requirements of DIN 7500 C for thread forming screws. The M5 thread size with a 0.8mm coarse pitch and Class 6g tolerance (implied by standard) ensures precise fit. It is fully threaded with a right-hand thread direction and a blunt tip. The product is verified to be RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, confirming it is free of restricted hazardous substances and safe for industrial use.
