S-95893A255 Length 1/2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Enhanced torque transmission with Torx Plus IP10 drive, reducing cam-out and tool wear for reliable fastening in plastic assemblies.
• Superior corrosion resistance from zinc-plated steel, ensuring long-term durability in industrial environments.
• Efficient thread forming with TRS Tri-Lobe shank design, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads in plastic without pre-tapping.
• Flush, professional finish thanks to the standard 82° flat head and countersink angle, ideal for applications requiring a smooth surface.
• Full threading for maximum grip along the 1/2" length, providing consistent holding power across the entire fastener engagement.
• Broad material compatibility specifically engineered for use in various plastics, reducing the risk of material cracking or stress.
• Regulatory peace of mind with compliance to RoHS 3 and REACH, meeting stringent environmental and safety standards for global supply chains.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 6 zinc-plated steel tapping screws are precision-engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly, such as strip-out and material fatigue. The TRS thread forming design with a Tri-Lobe shank cross-section displaces plastic material to form strong, permanent threads, eliminating the need for drilled holes and reducing installation time. The Torx Plus IP10 (T10) drive ensures high torque transmission with minimal slippage, crucial for automated or high-volume production lines. Combined with a flat head and 82° countersink, these screws provide a secure, flush fit in plastic enclosures, electronic housings, and automotive trim, enhancing both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. Ideal for industrial fasteners in consumer electronics, automotive components, and appliance manufacturing, they deliver reliable performance where precision and durability are paramount.
