• Maximum holding power achieved through fully threaded M2.5 design with 1.12mm pitch for superior pull-out resistance
• Precision compatibility with No. 45 drill bit (0.082") for optimal hole preparation in plastic applications
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH regulations for global industrial use

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.5 x 16mm T8 Torx flat head TRS tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value for plastic fastening applications where reliability and installation efficiency are critical. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance, while the thread forming technology eliminates the need for separate tapping operations, reducing assembly time and costs. The T8 Torx drive ensures maximum torque transmission without stripping, making it ideal for high-volume production environments. With its fully threaded design and blunt tip, this screw creates strong, permanent threads in various plastic materials without causing material cracking or stress concentration. The standard flat head profile with 90° countersink angle ensures flush mounting for aesthetic and functional requirements in electronic enclosures, automotive components, and consumer products.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This metric tapping screw features precise M2.5 diameter with 16mm length and 1.12mm thread pitch, designed for thread forming applications in plastic materials. The screw maintains dimensional accuracy with standard flat head profile (4.7mm diameter, 1.7mm height) and 90° countersink angle. Manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel with T8 Torx drive and right-hand threading, it complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring safe use across global industrial markets.
