Key Features & Benefits at a Glance
- Superior corrosion resistance with 18-8 stainless steel construction, ideal for humid or demanding industrial environments.
- Excellent holding power in plastic due to the thread-forming DST design, which creates strong, reliable threads without pre-tapping.
- Efficient installation with the Phillips No. 3 drive, providing a common and secure interface for high-torque applications.
- Optimized head design featuring a standard pan head for a low-profile finish and good surface contact.
- Full threading for maximum grip along the entire 1/2" length, ensuring a secure fastening in various plastic thicknesses.
- Reliable material compliance, meeting RoHS 3 and REACH standards for safe use in regulated industries.
- Precision thread engagement with 15 TPI and a 0.242" diameter for consistent performance in plastic assemblies.
Professional Applications & Engineering Value
This No. 14 x 1/2" tapping screw is specifically engineered for plastic applications, where traditional fasteners can strip or fail. The 18-8 stainless steel provides excellent corrosion resistance, crucial for outdoor equipment, automotive components, and electronic enclosures exposed to moisture. Its thread-forming DST design displaces plastic material during installation, creating a tight, vibration-resistant fit that eliminates the need for inserts and reduces assembly time. The Phillips pan head offers a flush finish and reliable drive engagement, making it a top choice for manufacturers seeking durable, efficient plastic fasteners for high-volume production.
Specification Summary & Compliance
This screw features a thread diameter of 0.242" with approximately 15 threads per inch and a fully threaded 1/2" length for consistent engagement. It conforms to standard inch measurements and is designed as a thread-forming tapping screw (DST type) for use in plastics, with a recommended drill bit size of 5.5 mm (0.2165"). The product is RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) Compliant and REACH (EC 1907/2006) Compliant, ensuring it meets stringent environmental and safety regulations for industrial use.
