Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10 x 1/2" TRS tapping screws are precision-engineered for robust fastening in plastic materials. The 18-8 Stainless Steel offers excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, critical in industrial settings where moisture or chemicals are present. The thread forming (TRS) design with a Tri-Lobe shank creates strong, permanent threads in plastic substrates without generating chips, eliminating cleanup and preventing stress cracking. Combined with the Torx Plus IP20 drive, these screws deliver high torque transfer, reducing the risk of stripping and enhancing assembly speed in automated or manual applications. The flat head with an 82° countersink ensures a smooth, flush surface, ideal for consumer electronics, automotive trim, and appliance assemblies where aesthetics and safety are paramount.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This fastener features a No. 10 screw size with a 1/2" length and fully threaded right-hand thread at approximately 14 threads per inch. The thread diameter is 0.19", designed for use with a No. 15 drill bit (0.18" diameter). It conforms to typical inch-system tolerances for tapping screws and is manufactured to meet industry standards for thread forming TRS types. The product is fully RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring adherence to environmental and safety regulations.
