S-96001A202 Length 1/4" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for humid or demanding environments.
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out using the Torx Plus IP10 drive, ensuring secure fastening and extended tool life.
• Excellent holding power in plastic materials due to the tri-lobe shank design, which forms strong, reliable threads without pre-tapping.
• Streamlined installation process with thread forming (TRS) design, minimizing assembly time and risk of material cracking.
• Consistent performance and reliability with fully threaded, right-hand configuration and standard pan head for uniform clamping force.
• Compliance with environmental and safety standards, including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe use in industrial applications.
• Optimized for use with No. 37 drill bit, providing precise fit and reducing installation errors in plastic components.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 4-20 x 1/4" TRS Torx Plus Tapping Screw is engineered to address common challenges in plastic fastening applications, such as material stress and corrosion. Made from 18-8 Stainless Steel, it offers exceptional durability and resistance to rust, making it suitable for outdoor or moisture-prone settings. The thread forming (TRS) design with a tri-lobe shank displaces plastic material during installation, creating robust internal threads that enhance pull-out strength and vibration resistance. Combined with the Torx Plus IP10 drive, it ensures high torque efficiency, reducing the risk of screw head damage and improving assembly speed in automated or manual processes. Ideal for electronics enclosures, automotive plastic parts, and consumer goods, this screw delivers reliable performance while meeting strict industry regulations.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw adheres to standard inch measurements with a thread diameter of 0.112" and 20 threads per inch, ensuring precise fit in pre-drilled holes (recommended No. 37 drill bit, 0.104" diameter). It features a right-hand thread, fully threaded length, and pan head style for consistent application. Compliance includes RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006), confirming it is free of hazardous substances and safe for industrial use.
