DIN7981 SS Self Tapping Screw

DIN7981 SS Self Tapping Screw has a sharp point and a helical thread that allows it to cut into the material as it is turned, eliminating the need for pre - tapping or pre - drilling in many cases.

Material: Stainless Steel (SS) – Typically A2 (304) or A4 (316) for corrosion resistance.

Thread Type: Fine or coarse thread (self-tapping design).

Head Style: Pan head with a cross recess (e.g., Phillips or Pozidriv drive).

Point Type: Sharp, self-drilling point for penetration into thin metal or plastic without pre-drilling.

Key Features:

Self-Tapping Design: Cuts its own thread into materials, eliminating the need for pre-tapping.

Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel construction ensures durability in harsh or outdoor environments.

Wide Applications: Used in sheet metal, plastic assemblies, automotive, and electrical enclosures.

DIN Standard Compliance: Meets German industrial norms (DIN 7981) for dimensional and mechanical consistency.

Common Uses:

HVAC systems

Automotive panels

Electronics housings

Thin-metal-to-plastic fastening

Note: Available in various lengths and diameters; A4 (316) grade is recommended for marine or chemical exposure.
