Taptite Pan Head Metric Thread Rolling Screw Torx Zinc

From $24.20

Trilobular Thread Rolling Screws are designed for forming their own threads in metal, providing deep thread engagement, excellent torque control, and resistance to vibrational loosening. Made from Mild Steel and Zinc Plated (RoHS Compliant) for corrosion protection. Torx drive head eliminates cam-out and provides consistent installation torque.

Description

Trilobular Thread Rolling Screw – Torx Drive (Zinc Plated Mild Steel)

The Trilobular Thread Rolling Screw range provides high-strength fastening in metals such as steel and aluminium. Its trilobular form reduces friction during thread forming while delivering prevailing torque and vibration resistance far exceeding standard self-tapping screws. The rolled thread design compresses the material grain structure for a stronger, more durable connection.

Applications

Metal framing and fabrication
Automotive and mechanical assemblies
Punched and cast metal parts
General sheet metal and light-gauge steel fixing

Material & Finish

Material: Mild Steel (MS)
Finish: Zinc Plated (Z/P) – RoHS Compliant

Features

Thread forming design eliminates the need for tapping, washers, or nuts.
Rolled trilobular threads compress the grain structure, strengthening the joint.
Provides superior resistance to vibration and loosening.
Precision Torx drive for reduced cam-out and consistent torque.
Cost-effective alternative to pre-threaded holes or locking fasteners.
