S-96001A206 Length 3/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 Stainless Steel construction for long-lasting performance in demanding environments
• Enhanced torque transfer and reduced cam-out using the Torx Plus IP10 drive system for reliable, high-torque installations
• Secure, vibration-resistant fastening in plastics through the thread forming (TRS) design that creates strong mating threads without chips
• Increased drive stability and strip resistance with the Tri-Lobe shank cross-section for consistent performance
• Easy installation and alignment with the standard pan head profile and blunt tip design
• Wide compatibility with pre-drilled holes using a standard No. 37 drill bit (0.104" diameter)
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for sustainable manufacturing

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered specifically for plastic fastening applications, this No. 4 x 3/8" TRS Torx Plus Tapping Screw delivers exceptional value in industrial assembly. The thread forming technology eliminates the risk of plastic cracking or stress fractures by displacing material rather than cutting it, creating stronger threaded connections that resist vibration loosening. The 18-8 Stainless Steel material provides excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor or harsh environment applications, while the Torx Plus IP10 drive ensures maximum torque transfer without stripping, reducing installation errors and tool wear. The Tri-Lobe shank design enhances rotational stability during driving, making these screws ideal for high-volume production lines where consistency and reliability are critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance
