S-95893A162 Length 6 mm 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 thanks to the T5 Torx drive, providing secure fastening and minimizing tool slippage.
• Optimal material displacement and strong thread engagement in plastic components due to the TRS thread forming design, eliminating the need for pre-tapped holes.
• Flush, professional finish achieved with the standard flat head and 90° countersink angle, ideal for applications requiring a smooth surface.
• Full-length threading for maximum grip across the entire 6mm length, distributing load evenly and enhancing joint integrity in plastic assemblies.
• Precision compatibility with No. 55 drill bits (0.052" diameter), ensuring accurate pilot holes and reducing installation errors.
• Compliance with strict environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, making them safe for use in regulated industries.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M1.6 x 6mm TRS thread forming screws are specifically engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly, such as material cracking and weak thread retention. The 18-8 stainless steel offers excellent durability and resistance to oxidation, while the thread forming (TRS) design displaces plastic material without cutting, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads that reduce the risk of stripping. The T5 Torx drive ensures high torque application with minimal wear on tools, making them ideal for high-volume production lines in electronics, automotive components, and consumer goods where precision and reliability are critical. Their fully threaded and blunt tip configuration allows for smooth insertion and secure fastening in brittle or soft plastics, enhancing assembly efficiency and product lifespan.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This metric screw features an M1.6 size with an approximate thread pitch of 0.67 mm and a length of 6 mm, adhering to standard dimensional tolerances for precision fit. The right-hand threaded, fully threaded shank and flat head with a 90° countersink angle comply with common industrial specifications for plastic fastening. Manufactured in accordance with relevant standards for thread forming screws, it is confirmed to be RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring environmental safety and regulatory adherence for global supply chains.
