S-95893A375 Length 1/2" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior torque transmission with T15 Torx drive design, reducing cam-out and tool wear for reliable installation
• Secure fastening in plastic materials through tri-lobe shank design that creates strong, vibration-resistant threads
• Enhanced corrosion resistance with black oxide steel finish, extending service life in industrial environments
• Optimal flush mounting with standard 82° flat head profile that sits perfectly countersunk in plastic components
• Maximum thread engagement with fully threaded 1/2" length, ensuring consistent holding power throughout the fastener
• Simplified installation process with compatible No. 23 drill bit specification for precise hole preparation
• Environmental compliance assurance meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for global manufacturing applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This No. 8 TRS plastic tapping screw delivers exceptional engineering value for plastic assembly applications where vibration resistance and material integrity are critical. The thread forming design with tri-lobe shank cross-section displaces plastic material without creating chips, eliminating contamination risks while generating strong, permanent threads that won't strip under stress. The black oxide steel construction provides sufficient hardness for repeated installations while resisting corrosion in demanding environments. With its T15 Torx drive system, manufacturers achieve higher torque values without screw head damage, making it ideal for automated assembly lines in electronics enclosures, automotive plastic components, and consumer product manufacturing where consistent performance and regulatory compliance are mandatory.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This thread forming screw features precise No. 8 thread diameter (0.164") with 16 TPI right-hand threading and fully threaded 1/2" length. The flat head design incorporates an 82° countersink angle for proper seating in prepared holes using No. 23 drill bit (0.154" diameter). Manufactured to industry standards for plastic fastening applications, this product is RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring environmental responsibility and global market acceptance.
