S-96001A406 Length 5/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 Stainless Steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in various environments.
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out via the T15 Torx drive, allowing for efficient installation and minimizing tool slippage.
• Excellent holding power in plastic materials due to the Tri-Lobe shank design, which forms strong threads without pre-tapping.
• Durable thread forming capability for plastic applications, eliminating the need for separate inserts and reducing assembly time.
• Secure and flush fastening with the rounded pan head profile, providing a neat finish and consistent clamping force.
• Full environmental compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards, ensuring safe use in regulated industries.
• Precise fit and reduced risk of material damage with a blunt tip and fully threaded design for controlled penetration in plastics.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 6 x 5/8" T15 Torx TRS plastic tapping screw is engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly, such as strip-out and weak thread engagement. The 18-8 Stainless Steel material offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance, ideal for outdoor or humid conditions. Its thread forming action with a Tri-Lobe shank creates robust, permanent threads in plastics, reducing the need for additional components and speeding up production. The T15 Torx drive ensures high torque application without cam-out, minimizing installation errors and enhancing worker safety. Commonly used in electronics, automotive, and consumer goods, this screw provides reliable fastening for plastic components, supporting efficient, high-volume manufacturing while meeting strict RoHS and REACH environmental guidelines.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a thread diameter of 0.138" with approximately 19 threads per inch, ensuring precise fit in pre-drilled holes (recommended No. 32 drill bit size, 0.116" diameter). It adheres to standard inch measurements and includes a right-hand thread direction with full threading for consistent performance. Compliance is confirmed with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, guaranteeing the absence of hazardous substances and supporting sustainable procurement practices in industrial applications.
