S-92400A310 Length 5/8" 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 holding power in plastic materials due to the Tri-Lobe shank design, which reduces spin-out and provides secure, vibration-resistant fastening.
• Efficient installation and removal with an external hex drive and hex head, allowing for high torque application and easy use with standard tools.
• Reliable thread forming action for plastic applications, creating strong threads without pre-tapping and minimizing material stress.
• Full threading along the 5/8" length ensures consistent grip and distribution of load, ideal for varied plastic thicknesses.
• Compliance with environmental standards including RoHS 3 and REACH, making these screws safe for use in regulated industries and global markets.
• Precision-matched drill bit sizing (No. 21, 0.159" diameter) for optimal hole preparation, reducing installation time and improving assembly accuracy.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 10-14 TRS zinc-plated steel tapping screws are specifically engineered to address common challenges in plastic fastening, such as material cracking and loose fittings. The thread forming design and Tri-Lobe shank work together to displace plastic material gently, forming secure internal threads that resist back-out under vibration and thermal cycling. This makes them ideal for plastic assembly in automotive, electronics, and consumer goods, where reliability and durability are critical. The external hex drive and fully threaded body enable quick, high-torque installations, reducing labor costs and enhancing production efficiency in industrial settings.

Specification Summary & Compliance
