Professional Applications & Engineering Value
These M3 thread forming screws are specifically engineered for plastic assembly applications where traditional fastening methods may cause material stress or failure. The TRS (Thread Rolling Screw) design displaces plastic material rather than cutting it, creating stronger threads with improved resistance to vibration loosening. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining the necessary ductility for thread forming operations. The Phillips pan head with No. 1 drive size offers reliable installation with standard tools, and the blunt tip design prevents damage to delicate plastic components. These features make these metric tapping screws ideal for electronics enclosures, automotive plastic components, and consumer products requiring durable, vibration-resistant fastening solutions.
Specification Summary & Compliance
This M3 x 16mm thread forming screw features standard metric dimensions with fully threaded shank and 1.34mm pitch for consistent performance. The screw conforms to TRS thread forming standards and is designed for use with No. 41 drill bits (0.096" diameter). Manufacturing and material compliance includes RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring environmental responsibility and suitability for global industrial applications.
