  • Secure, vibration-resistant fastening in plastics achieved through the thread forming (TRS) design and tri-lobe shank
  • Consistent, flush seating with the standard pan head profile, ensuring a professional finish
  • Full-length threading for maximum grip along the entire 5mm length, providing superior holding power
  • Compliance with major environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safety and sustainability
  • Precision compatibility with a No. 54 drill bit (0.055") for accurate and efficient installation in plastic components

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M1.59 metric TRS tapping screw is engineered to solve common fastening challenges in plastic applications, where material stripping and weak thread engagement are major concerns. The thread forming technology and tri-lobe shank cross-section displace plastic material to create strong, permanent internal threads without generating chips, eliminating cleanup and ensuring a tight, reliable fit. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel, it resists corrosion, maintaining integrity in electronics enclosures, automotive trim, and consumer appliances. The Torx Plus IP5 drive allows for higher torque application compared to traditional drives, minimizing the risk of driver slippage and head damage during assembly, which is critical for high-volume production lines and automated driving systems.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a M1.59 screw size with an approximate thread pitch of 0.6mm and is fully threaded. It has a right-hand thread direction and a blunt tip. The drive system is a Torx Plus IP5 (T5). This product is manufactured to precise dimensional standards and is compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations.
