S-96001A059 Length 1/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 Stainless Steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in humid or demanding environments
• Enhanced torque transfer and reduced cam-out thanks to the Torx Plus IP3 drive, allowing for higher installation efficiency and tool longevity
• Secure, vibration-resistant fastening in plastic materials due to the tri-lobe shank design that displaces material without cracking
• Consistent thread formation and holding power with fully threaded, right-hand TRS design and 51 TPI for precise engagement
• Streamlined installation process using a standard No. 59 drill bit (0.041" diameter), minimizing preparation time and errors
• Broad industrial compliance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH environmental standards for global supply chain integration
• Optimized head profile with rounded pan style for a flush finish and reduced surface protrusion in assembled products

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 00 x 1/4" TRS tapping screw is engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly, where material integrity and fastener retention are critical. The thread forming (TRS) design with a tri-lobe shank creates strong, permanent threads in plastic substrates without generating chips, eliminating cleanup and potential short-circuit risks in electronics. Made from 18-8 Stainless Steel, it resists oxidation and chemical exposure, ideal for outdoor equipment, automotive components, and consumer electronics. The Torx Plus IP3 drive ensures maximum torque transmission, reducing operator fatigue and screw head damage during high-volume production. These features make it a reliable choice for plastic fastening applications requiring precision, durability, and compliance with stringent industry regulations.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw adheres to standard inch measurements with a diameter of 0.047" (No. 00) and length of 1/4", featuring a fully threaded, right-hand TRS thread form with approximately 51 threads per inch for consistent engagement. The Torx Plus IP3 drive corresponds to T3 size, ensuring compatibility with industry-standard tools. It is fully RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, confirming the absence of restricted hazardous substances. The blunt tip and pan head with standard rounded profile facilitate easy alignment and a clean installed appearance, meeting general industrial fastening specifications for plastic components.
