Taptite Pan Head Metric Thread Rolling Screw Torx Zinc

DescriptionTrilobular 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.ApplicationsMetal framing and fabricationAutomotive and mechanical assembliesPunched and cast metal partsGeneral sheet metal and light-gauge steel fixingMaterial & FinishMaterial: Mild Steel (MS)Finish: Zinc Plated (Z/P) – RoHS CompliantFeaturesThread 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.SpecificationsPartSize Ø (mm) DLength (mm) LTorx SizeRecommended Hole Size (Steel)Recommended Hole Size (Aluminium)MTMSZPOM030006M36T102.752.75MTMSZPOM030008M38T102.752.75MTMSZPOM030010M310T102.752.75MTMSZPOM030012M312T102.752.75MTMSZPOM030014M314T102.752.75MTMSZPOM040008M48T203.65–3.73.7MTMSZPOM040010M410T203.65–3.73.7MTMSZPOM040012M412T203.65–3.73.7MTMSZPOM040016M416T203.65–3.73.7MTMSZPOM040020M420T203.65–3.73.7MTMSZPOM050010M510T254.6–4.654.65MTMSZPOM050012M512T254.6–4.654.65MTMSZPOM050016M516T254.6–4.654.65MTMSZPOM050020M520T254.6–4.654.65MTMSZPOM060010M610T305.5–5.555.65MTMSZPOM060012M612T305.5–5.555.65MTMSZPOM060016M616T305.5–5.555.65MTMSZPOM060020M620T305.5–5.555.65MTMSZPOM060030M630T305.5–5.555.65Recommended Hole SizesM3: 2.75mm in Steel or AluminiumM4: 3.65–3.7mm in Steel / 3.7mm in AluminiumM5: 4.6–4.65mm in Steel / 4.65mm in AluminiumM6: 5.5–5.55mm in Steel / 5.65mm in AluminiumAll values are recommendations based on optimal thread-forming performance and may vary depending on material hardness and hole preparation. [Product Information]
