S-96817A271 Length 10 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction for extended service life in demanding environments
• Enhanced torque transmission through Torx Plus IP8 drive system, reducing cam-out and tool wear
• Optimized for plastic materials with thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads without chip formation
• Maximum holding power achieved through fully threaded design along the entire 10mm length
• Secure fastening in plastic applications with blunt tip design that prevents material splitting during installation
• Consistent performance with precise M2.5 metric sizing and 0.95mm pitch for reliable engagement
• Pan head design provides a low-profile finish with excellent bearing surface for secure fastening

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.5 TRS thread forming screw delivers exceptional engineering value in plastic assembly applications where traditional fastening methods often fail. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining the structural integrity required for repeated assembly cycles. The Torx Plus IP8 drive system addresses common installation challenges by minimizing cam-out and enabling higher torque application without damaging the drive recess. As a thread forming screw for plastic, it eliminates the need for pre-tapped holes while creating strong, vibration-resistant connections that maintain integrity in thermal cycling conditions. The combination of fully threaded design and precise 0.95mm pitch ensures maximum thread engagement in various plastic materials, from thermoplastics to composites, making it ideal for electronics enclosures, automotive components, and consumer products where reliable plastic-to-plastic or plastic-to-metal fastening is critical.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This metric M2.5 x 10mm TRS tapping screw features standard thread tolerances suitable for plastic applications with a precise 0.95mm thread pitch and fully threaded shank design. The screw complies with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) regulations and meets REACH (EC 1907/2006) compliance standards, ensuring environmental responsibility and material safety. Manufactured with a pan head style and Torx Plus IP8 drive, it maintains consistent dimensional accuracy for reliable performance in industrial assembly processes.
