4RX5-8THASS Self-Tapping Screw, #4 Dia, 5/8 in L, Truss Head, Stainless Steel

Overview

Self-Tapping screws are known for their superior strength and their broad application across aerospace industry. Point type A is a thread forming screw with coarse treads and gimlet point for use in thin metals even with large diameter holes. The drill point enables it to drill its own hole, where there is no need for pre- drilling. Whereas silver coating provides exceptional anti-galling and anti-fretting to the product due to its low friction, higher lubricity and a wide operating temperature. Part number 4RX5-8THASS is effective at high temperatures and ensures long life. The truss head are wider and allows them to protrude out the surface into which they are driven and allows for a better load distribution. Additionally, they also have a lower head comparatively to round head screw thus prevents tampering.
