S-90417A127 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior holding power in plastic with Tri-Lobe shank design that displaces material to create permanent, vibration-resistant threads
• Reduced installation torque and prevention of material stress through thread-forming technology that eliminates chips and cracking
• Enhanced corrosion resistance with black-oxide steel finish for extended service life in various environments
• Quick and precise installation with Phillips No. 2 drive system providing reliable torque transfer
• Secure fastening in plastic applications with 19 threads per inch ensuring maximum engagement and pull-out resistance
• Simplified alignment and reduced damage risk thanks to blunt tip design that guides accurately into pre-drilled holes
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These TRS tapping screws are specifically engineered for plastic fastening applications where traditional threaded fasteners often fail. The Tri-Lobe shank cross-section and thread-forming design solve critical industry challenges by creating strong, permanent threads in plastic materials without generating chips or causing stress fractures. The black-oxide steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining the mechanical strength needed for demanding applications. With 0.138" thread diameter and 19 threads per inch, these screws deliver optimal engagement in plastic components, preventing stripping and maintaining integrity under vibration and load. The Phillips No. 2 drive ensures efficient installation in production environments, while the blunt tip facilitates precise positioning in pre-drilled holes using the specified 1/8" drill bit, making them ideal for assembly lines in electronics enclosures, automotive trim, and consumer products.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This No. 6 x 5/8" TRS tapping screw features precise 0.138" thread diameter with 19 threads per inch and fully threaded design for maximum holding capability. Manufactured from black-oxide steel with Tri-Lobe shank cross-section and thread forming technology, these screws comply with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental standards, ensuring safe use in regulated applications. The right-hand threaded fasteners are designed for use in plastic materials with recommended 1/8" drill bit size for proper hole preparation.
