S-96817A869 Length 10 mm Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in humid or demanding environments.
• Enhanced torque transmission and reduced cam-out thanks to the Torx Plus IP6 drive, allowing for higher tightening precision and less tool wear.
• Secure, permanent fastening in plastic materials through thread forming (TRS) technology, which creates strong threads without pre-tapping and eliminates chip formation.
• Consistent, flush installation with a rounded pan head design, providing a neat finish and even load distribution on plastic surfaces.
• Full-length threading for maximum grip across the entire 10mm length, ensuring robust holding power in plastic assemblies.
• Precise M2.2 metric sizing with 0.85mm pitch for accurate fit and reliable performance in standardized plastic components.
• Compliance with major environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, making it suitable for global industrial and electronics applications.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This M2.2 x 10mm thread forming screw is specifically engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly, such as material cracking, weak thread retention, and inconsistent fastening. The TRS (Thread Rolling Screw) design displaces plastic material to form durable internal threads, eliminating chips and reducing stress concentrations that can lead to failure. Made from 18-8 stainless steel, it offers excellent resistance to oxidation and chemical exposure, which is critical in automotive, electronics, and consumer goods where plastic housings are prevalent. The Torx Plus drive (IP6/T6) ensures high torque transfer with minimal slippage, speeding up assembly lines and reducing rework. Its fully threaded M2.2 metric shank and blunt tip facilitate easy alignment and consistent engagement, making it a reliable choice for high-volume production environments requiring precision and durability.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This screw adheres to standard metric dimensions with an M2.2 diameter, 10mm length, and 0.85mm thread pitch, ensuring interchangeability and precise fit. The thread forming (TRS) tapping method follows industry practices for plastic fastening without pre-drilled threads. It is fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) regulations, confirming the absence of restricted hazardous substances. The Torx Plus drive system (IP6/T6) and pan head profile are manufactured to consistent industrial standards, providing reliable performance in automated or manual assembly processes.
