S-94629A130 Length 3/8" Tapping Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Superior corrosion resistance with 410 stainless steel construction, ensuring long-term reliability in humid or demanding environments.
• Efficient thread cutting action with Type 25/BT design, creating strong, secure threads in plastic materials without pre-tapping.
• Optimized drive engagement through Phillips No. 1 drive, providing reliable torque transfer and reducing cam-out during installation.
• Full-length threading delivers maximum grip and holding power across the entire 3/8" length in plastic assemblies.
• Precision 32 TPI threading ensures tight, vibration-resistant connections in plastic components.
• Compliance with environmental regulations including RoHS 3 and REACH, making them suitable for global manufacturing requirements.
• Rounded pan head design offers a low-profile finish while distributing clamping force effectively.

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

These No. 2 thread cutting tapping screws are specifically engineered to address common challenges in plastic assembly applications, where traditional fasteners often struggle with material stripping or insufficient holding power. The 410 stainless steel composition provides excellent corrosion resistance, crucial for outdoor equipment, automotive components, and electronic enclosures exposed to environmental elements. The thread cutting design with 32 TPI precision creates clean, secure threads in plastic substrates without requiring pre-drilled tapping operations, significantly reducing assembly time and labor costs. The Phillips No. 1 drive ensures consistent installation torque, while the fully threaded shank maximizes surface contact for superior pull-out resistance. These characteristics make these tapping screws ideal for high-volume manufacturing environments where reliability, speed, and regulatory compliance are critical factors.

Specification Summary & Compliance

These screws feature a 0.086" thread diameter with 32 TPI precision threading and 3/8" length, designed for use with No. 49 drill bits (0.073" diameter) in plastic materials. Manufactured to Type 25/BT thread cutting standards with right-hand threading and blunt tip configuration. Fully compliant with RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) and REACH (EC 1907/2006) environmental regulations, ensuring they meet international safety and substance restriction requirements for industrial applications.
