S-90380A386 Length 8 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior thread forming capability creates strong, permanent threads in plastic materials without chips or debris
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance for extended service life in industrial environments
• Optimized blunt tip design prevents material splitting and damage during installation in plastic components
• Phillips No. 2 drive system ensures maximum torque transfer and reduces cam-out during high-speed assembly
• Fully threaded shank delivers maximum holding power across the entire fastener length for secure plastic assemblies
• Precision M5 metric sizing with 2.24mm pitch ensures perfect fit and reliable performance in standard plastic applications
• Environmental compliance ready meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M5 thread forming screws are specifically engineered for plastic assembly applications where traditional cutting screws would cause material stress or failure. The TRS thread forming design displaces plastic material rather than cutting it, creating zero clearance fit that resists vibration loosening and maintains joint integrity. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while the Phillips No. 2 drive accommodates high-volume production environments with reliable torque transmission. Ideal for plastic component assembly in automotive interiors, electrical enclosures, and consumer products, these fasteners eliminate the need for pre-tapped holes while providing superior pull-out strength compared to self-tapping alternatives.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M5 x 8mm thread forming screw features precision metric threading with standard pitch of 2.24mm and fully threaded blunt tip configuration. Manufactured from zinc-plated steel with pan head profile and Phillips No. 2 drive. Designed for use with 3.75mm pilot holes in plastic materials. Fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use across industrial applications while meeting international fastener standards for plastic assembly requirements.
