S-96817A414 Length 6 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for demanding environments
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out thanks to the T6 Torx drive design
• Secure, permanent fastening in plastic achieved through the thread-forming (TRS) action
• Eliminates the need for a separate washer with the integrated flange for increased load distribution
• Precise installation and reduced material stress from the blunt tip and fully threaded shank
• Reliable performance in automated assembly with consistent right-hand thread and standard dimensions
• Compliance with major environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH for global market access

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.5 flanged tapping screw is engineered to solve critical challenges in plastic assembly. Its 18-8 stainless steel material provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, essential for electronics, automotive components, and outdoor equipment housings. The T6 Torx drive ensures high torque transfer with minimal tool slippage, increasing assembly line efficiency and reducing damage to screw heads. As a thread-forming screw (TRS), it creates strong, wear-resistant threads in plastic substrates without generating chips, preventing potential short circuits in sensitive applications. The flanged design acts as an integrated washer, providing a larger bearing surface to prevent pull-through in softer plastics, making it a robust and reliable fastening solution for high-volume production.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw conforms to standard metric (M2.5) dimensions with a length of 6mm and an approximate thread pitch of 1.12mm. It is fully threaded with a right-hand direction and a blunt tip. The product is manufactured to be RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring it meets stringent environmental and safety standards for hazardous substances.
