Description
Meet the Thread Rolling Screws: an unslotted indented hex washer head fastener engineered for high-strength metal assemblies. Crafted from steel with a zinc finish and waxed coating, this drive is designed for smooth driving, excellent corrosion resistance, and durable performance. The Tri-Lobe drive provides positive engagement and reliable torque transfer, while the 5/16-18 x 2-1/4 size makes it a solid alternative to Taptite screws for a wide range of applications.
Key Features
- Thread Rolling design: forms threads in the material, creating strong, burr-free threads and better fatigue resistance.
- Unslotted Indented Hex Washer Head: flush seating with distributed load for secure fastening.
- Tri-Lobe drive: ensures positive engagement and consistent torque transfer.
- Material and Finish: steel with zinc plating and a wax coating for corrosion protection and lubricated installation.

- Alternative to Taptite screws: a robust choice for achieving strong thread-forming performance in metal assemblies.
Benefits
- High shear strength and vibration resistance thanks to the thread-rolling process.
- Reduced risk of thread damage and fewer burrs compared with cut-thread fasteners.
