• Efficient thread forming in plastics with the TRS Tri-Lobe shank design, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads without pre-tapping.
• Consistent flush seating thanks to the rounded pan head profile, offering a clean finish and even load distribution.
• Full-length threading and blunt tip for easy alignment and reduced risk of material cracking during installation in plastic components.
• Precision compatibility with standard 5/64" drill bits, streamlining the assembly process and reducing preparation time.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe and sustainable use in global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.26 x 10mm Torx Plus TRS tapping screw is specifically engineered for high-performance plastic applications, where traditional fasteners may strip or fail. The 18-8 stainless steel material offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance, ideal for electronics, automotive interiors, and consumer goods exposed to moisture or chemicals. Its thread forming capability with the Tri-Lobe shank displaces plastic material to form durable internal threads, eliminating the need for inserts and reducing assembly steps. The Torx Plus drive ensures maximum torque transfer, minimizing slippage and damage to the screw head, which is critical in automated production lines. With a blunt tip and fully threaded design, it prevents plastic splitting and provides consistent clamping force, enhancing product longevity and reducing warranty issues in plastic screw assemblies.

Specification Summary & Compliance
