S-95893A198 Length 30 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for harsh environments and long-term reliability in plastic assemblies.
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out thanks to the T8 Torx drive, ensuring secure fastening and minimizing tool slippage.
• Efficient thread forming in plastics using the TRS thread forming design, which creates strong, durable threads without generating chips.
• Flush, professional finish with a flat head and 90° countersink angle, allowing the screw to sit neatly within the material surface.
• Simplified installation process as it is designed for use with a standard No. 41 drill bit (0.096"), reducing preparation time and errors.
• Full-length threading provides consistent holding power along the entire 30mm length, improving load distribution in plastic components.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe and sustainable use in various industries.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M3 x 30mm thread forming screw is specifically engineered for plastic applications, where traditional fasteners may strip or fail. Made from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers excellent strength and corrosion resistance, preventing degradation in humid or chemical-exposed settings. The TRS thread forming method displaces material to form precise threads, eliminating chip production and reducing the risk of contamination in sensitive assemblies like electronics or automotive parts. The T8 Torx drive enhances torque control, minimizing the chance of head damage during installation. With a flat head design and 90° countersink, it ensures a smooth, flush fit, ideal for aesthetic or aerodynamic surfaces in consumer products and industrial equipment. This screw streamlines plastic assembly processes, offering reliable performance and reducing maintenance needs over time.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features an M3 metric size with a 1.34 mm approximate thread pitch and fully threaded right-hand design for consistent engagement. It adheres to standard dimensional tolerances for thread forming screws and is compatible with a No. 41 drill bit (0.096") for precise hole preparation. The product complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring it is free from hazardous substances and suitable for global manufacturing requirements.
