Fastening screw TAPTITE PRO®

hexagonal washer-headhex socketsteel

TAPTITE PRO® thread forming screws advance current thread forming technology with the development of the Parabolic Profile™ thread form. The innovative new thread form, when combined with the proven Trilobular™ cross section, provides low thread forming torque, excellent resistance to vibrational loosening along with high axial pullout and reduced overall cost of assembly. In addition to these great benefits, TAPTITE PRO® screws maintain torque tension relationships comparable to machine screws of equivalent size. TAPTITE PRO® fasteners also provide an improved failure mode; as a result of over-tightening in standard lengths of engagement, the screw will fracture within the screw threads. FEATURES ► Deep thread engagements generates strong mating threads with uninterrupted grain flow ► No assembly line cross threading ► Superior vibration resistance eliminates need for add-on locking devices ► Eases assembly – low end load to initiate thread forming, less operator fatigue BENEFITS ► Axial alignment ► Low end load ► Low thread-forming torque ► Efficient torque-tension relationships ► Resistance to vibrational loosening ► Resistance to axial pull-out
