• Reliable thread forming in plastics with a blunt tip and TRS design, minimizing stress cracking and ensuring strong, durable fastening without pre-tapping.
• Consistent 0.71mm thread pitch delivers precise engagement and uniform load distribution, enhancing joint integrity in plastic assemblies.
• Fully threaded shank maximizes grip length and pull-out resistance, ideal for thin or soft plastic materials.
• Standard pan head profile offers a low-profile, flush finish while providing ample bearing surface for secure clamping.
• Compliance with RoHS 3 and REACH regulations ensures environmental safety and meets global supply chain requirements for hazardous substance control.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered for plastic assembly applications, this M1.8 x 4mm TRS tapping screw addresses common challenges like material cracking and stripped threads. The thread forming design with a blunt tip displaces plastic material without cutting, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads that withstand dynamic loads. Made from zinc-plated steel, it resists corrosion in humid or chemically exposed settings, while the Torx Plus IP6 drive enables high torque transfer with minimal slippage—critical for automated production lines and repetitive fastening in electronics, automotive trim, and consumer goods. This combination of precision metric sizing and specialized thread pitch ensures consistent performance in delicate plastic components, reducing assembly time and improving product lifespan.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw features a M1.8 x 4mm fully threaded shank with a 0.71mm thread pitch and blunt tip for thread forming applications in plastics. It complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, ensuring adherence to environmental and safety standards. The Torx Plus IP6 (T6) drive provides precise torque control, and the zinc-plated steel material offers durability and corrosion resistance suitable for industrial use.
