S-95893A398 Length 10 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term durability in various industrial environments.
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out thanks to the Torx T15 drive, allowing for precise installation and higher tightening forces.
• Secure, vibration-resistant fastening in plastics through thread-forming (TRS) design, which creates strong mating threads without pre-tapping.
• Flush, low-profile installation with a standard flat head and 90° countersink angle, ideal for applications where a smooth surface is critical.
• Optimized for 2.6mm drill bits, simplifying hole preparation and reducing assembly time in plastic components.
• Full M3.5 thread engagement along the 10mm length and blunt tip for controlled penetration, minimizing risk of material damage.
• Compliance with major environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, ensuring safe use in global markets.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3.5 x 10mm zinc-plated steel tapping screws are specifically engineered for plastic assembly, where traditional fasteners may strip or loosen. The thread-forming TRS design displaces plastic material to form permanent, high-strength threads, eliminating the need for inserts and reducing part count. Combined with a Torx T15 drive, they provide exceptional torque transfer, preventing driver slippage and ensuring consistent clamp load in automated or manual settings. The flat head with 90° countersink sits flush, avoiding protrusions in consumer electronics, automotive trim, or enclosure assemblies. This metric screw solution enhances reliability in plastic fastening while supporting efficient production with standard 2.6mm drill preparation.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M3.5 x 10mm fully threaded screw features a right-hand thread with an approximate pitch of 1.57 mm, manufactured to standard metric dimensions for consistent performance. The zinc-plated steel material and thread-forming (TRS) tapping method ensure durability and secure fastening in plastics. Compliance with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) confirms adherence to environmental and safety standards, making these screws suitable for regulated industrial applications worldwide.
