S-94209A659 M3.5 x 12 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, extending service life in demanding industrial environments
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out with Torx Plus IP15 drive system for reliable installation and removal
• Excellent thread-forming capability in non-ferrous materials like aluminum, brass, and copper without requiring pre-tapped holes
• Maximum holding power through fully threaded tri-lobe shank design that creates secure, vibration-resistant connections
• Streamlined installation process with standardized M3.5 x 0.6 mm coarse thread metric configuration
• Reduced head protrusion with pan head design for applications where low-profile fastening is essential
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for global manufacturing applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3.5 tapping screws with thread forming capability are engineered specifically for challenging applications in aluminum, brass, and copper components. The tri-lobe shank design displaces material during installation, creating permanent threads that resist loosening under vibration and thermal cycling. The Torx Plus IP15 drive system delivers exceptional torque transfer efficiency, minimizing tool slippage and preventing damage to the drive recess during high-torque installation. Combined with the zinc-plated steel construction, these metric screws provide reliable performance in electronics enclosures, automotive assemblies, and industrial equipment where vibration resistance and corrosion protection are critical engineering requirements.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M3.5 x 0.6 mm thread forming screw features a coarse thread spacing with fully threaded configuration and 12 mm length (-0.8 to 0mm tolerance). Manufactured to metric standards with Torx Plus T15 drive compatibility and pan head style. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring suitability for global industrial applications and restricted substance requirements.
