S-96817A350 Length 10 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with zinc-plated steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in industrial environments
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out with Torx Plus IP10 drive, providing secure fastening and minimizing tool slippage
• Optimal plastic material retention through thread forming (TRS) design, creating strong, vibration-resistant threads without chip formation
• Full 10mm threading delivers maximum grip length for consistent holding power across the entire fastener engagement
• Blunt tip design prevents material splitting and ensures precise positioning in plastic components
• Standard pan head profile offers low-profile installation with adequate bearing surface for secure fastening
• Environmental compliance assurance with RoHS 3 and REACH standards, meeting global regulatory requirements for hazardous substances

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These M3 thread forming screws are specifically engineered for plastic fastening applications where material integrity and joint reliability are critical. The TRS (Thread Rolling Screw) type with 1.12mm pitch creates permanent, high-strength threads in plastic materials through cold forming, eliminating the risk of loose chips that can compromise electronic components or moving parts. The zinc-plated steel construction provides essential corrosion protection while maintaining the mechanical strength required for industrial assembly environments. Combined with the Torx Plus IP10 drive system, these metric tapping screws deliver superior torque transfer efficiency, reducing installation time and preventing damage to both the fastener and assembly components. The fully threaded 10mm length with blunt tip design ensures consistent performance across various plastic thicknesses while minimizing stress concentration points.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These M3 x 10mm tapping screws feature fully threaded construction with 1.12mm pitch and blunt tip design optimized for plastic applications. The Torx Plus IP10 (T10) drive system ensures precise torque application, while the standard pan head with 5.15mm diameter provides reliable clamping force. Manufactured to thread forming standards for plastic materials, these screws comply with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet current hazardous substance restrictions for industrial use.
