Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3 tapping screws are specifically engineered for plastic applications where reliable fastening is critical. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining structural integrity. The thread forming design (TRS type) creates strong, permanent threads in plastic materials without generating chips that could interfere with electronic components or moving parts. The T8 Torx drive delivers superior torque transmission compared to traditional drive types, reducing the risk of stripping during installation. With a 90° countersink angle and flat head profile, these screws sit flush with the surface, creating clean finishes in consumer electronics, automotive trim, and industrial enclosures. The combination of 1.34mm thread pitch and fully threaded design ensures maximum holding power in various plastic densities.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M3 x 8mm tapping screw features metric threading with thread forming (TRS) design for plastic applications. The screw maintains standard dimensional accuracy with 5.5mm head diameter and 1.8mm head height. Manufactured from zinc-plated steel with blunt tip and right-hand thread direction, it requires a 2.25mm pilot hole for proper installation. The product is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring suitability for industrial and commercial applications worldwide.
