S-99461A932 Length 10 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction for long-lasting performance in demanding environments
• Excellent holding power in plastics due to TRS thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads without chips
• Reliable installation and removal with Phillips No. 1 drive that provides secure tool engagement and prevents cam-out
• Optimized head design featuring a 4.4mm pan head with rounded profile for smooth surface finish and reduced stress concentration
• Full threading along 10mm length ensures maximum grip and uniform stress distribution throughout the fastened joint
• Precision dimensional accuracy with consistent 1.12mm thread pitch for reliable performance in automated assembly processes
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.5 thread forming screw delivers exceptional engineering value for plastic assembly applications where traditional fastening methods often fail. The TRS (Thread Rolling Screw) design with its specialized thread form displaces plastic material rather than cutting it, creating stronger, more durable threads that resist stripping and loosening under vibration. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, these metric tapping screws maintain their structural integrity in humid or corrosive environments that would degrade lesser materials. The combination of Phillips drive and pan head profile ensures quick, reliable installation in high-volume production settings while the blunt tip prevents damage to delicate plastic components. These thread forming screws for plastic are particularly valuable in electronics enclosures, automotive trim, and consumer products where reliable fastening in thermoplastic materials is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This precision fastener features M2.5 screw size with 10mm length and fully threaded configuration. The thread forming design operates with 1.12mm approximate thread pitch and requires No. 45 drill bit (0.082") for proper installation in plastic materials. The pan head measures 4.4mm in diameter with 1.8mm height and utilizes Phillips No. 1 drive style. Manufactured to exacting standards, this product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use across industrial applications.
