Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

  • Superior torque transmission with Torx Plus IP10 drive, minimizing cam-out and tool wear for efficient installation
  • Excellent corrosion resistance through zinc-plated steel construction, extending service life in demanding environments
  • Reliable thread-forming capability in aluminum, brass, and copper without pre-tapping, reducing assembly time and costs
  • Enhanced pull-out resistance with tri-lobe shank design that creates secure mating in soft materials
  • Optimized for automated assembly with consistent 6mm length and blunt tip for precise positioning
  • Broad industrial compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for global manufacturing applications
  • Secure fastening performance with fully threaded M3 coarse pitch design ensuring maximum engagement strength

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3 thread forming screws with tri-lobe shank design solve critical challenges in fastening aluminum, brass, and copper components. The Torx Plus IP10 drive system delivers exceptional torque transfer while preventing stripping common in Phillips drives, making them ideal for high-volume production environments. The zinc-plated steel construction provides reliable corrosion protection where environmental factors threaten fastener integrity. Engineered specifically for thread forming applications, these screws create strong, permanent threads in ductile materials without chips or debris, eliminating secondary cleaning operations. The combination of metric coarse threading and fully threaded design ensures maximum holding power in electronic enclosures, HVAC components, and automotive assemblies where vibration resistance is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to precise metric standards with M3 x 0.5mm coarse thread and Class tolerance. Features right-hand threading with fully threaded configuration and 6mm length tolerance of -0.8 to 0mm. Compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations for hazardous substance restrictions. The tri-lobe shank cross-section and thread forming method ensure consistent performance in industrial fastening applications.
