S-96817A314 Length 4 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior torque transmission with T6 Torx drive prevents cam-out and reduces tool wear during installation
• Enhanced corrosion resistance through zinc-plated steel construction ensures long-term reliability in various environments
• Secure fastening in plastic materials with thread forming design that creates strong, permanent threads without chips
• Increased bearing surface from the flanged pan head distributes load evenly and prevents pull-through
• Streamlined installation process with fully threaded blunt tip that guides accurately into pre-drilled holes
• Optimal material displacement with precise 0.98mm thread pitch for maximum holding power in plastics
• Wide compatibility with standard 56 drill bit (0.0465") for consistent performance across plastic assembly applications

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M2.2 thread forming screws deliver exceptional value in plastic assembly applications where reliable fastening and material integrity are paramount. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection for industrial environments, while the TRS (Thread Rolling Screw) design with blunt tip eliminates chip formation during installation - a critical advantage in plastic fastening where contamination must be avoided. The flanged pan head combines aesthetic appeal with functional benefits, offering an enlarged bearing surface that prevents damage to softer plastic materials. With T6 Torx drive compatibility, these metric screws ensure high torque transmission efficiency, reducing installation time and improving production line consistency across electronics enclosures, automotive plastic components, and consumer product assemblies.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This M2.2 x 4mm tapping screw features precision metric threading with 0.98mm thread pitch and fully threaded design for maximum engagement. The screw maintains dimensional accuracy with 4.5mm flange diameter and 1.4mm head height for consistent performance. Manufactured to thread forming standards for plastic applications, these screws are fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet the strictest industrial requirements for hazardous substance restrictions.
