S-90485A416 Length 8 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for humid or demanding industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming design (TRS) creates strong, permanent threads in plastic materials without chips or debris.
• Reliable drive engagement from the Phillips No. 1 drive, reducing cam-out and ensuring secure installation.
• Flush, low-profile finish with a standard flat head and 90° countersink angle for a smooth surface in assembled products.
• Full threading and blunt tip provide consistent holding power and prevent damage to delicate plastic components.
• Precision metric sizing (M2 x 8mm, 0.89mm pitch) ensures accurate fit and reliable performance in automated assembly lines.
• Compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH guarantees safe, environmentally responsible materials for global supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2 x 8mm Phillips flat head TRS tapping screw is specifically engineered for plastic assembly applications, where material integrity and fastener reliability are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel offers excellent resistance to oxidation and chemical exposure, extending service life in electronics enclosures, automotive trim, and consumer goods. The TRS thread forming design displaces plastic material during installation, creating robust, vibration-resistant threads without the risk of cracking or stress concentration. Combined with a fully threaded shank and standard flat head profile, it ensures uniform clamping force and a flush finish, streamlining production while reducing the need for secondary operations. This makes it an ideal choice for high-volume manufacturing where consistency and durability are paramount.
