This document has been declared "Stabilized" and will no longer be subjected to periodic reviews for currency. Users are responsible for verifying references and continued suitability or technical requirements. New technology may exist. This SAE Recommended Practice covers the mechanical and quality requirements for steel tapping screws used in automotive and related industries. It does not apply to corrosion resistant (stainless) steel screws. (Dimensional requirements for most types of screws mentioned herein are covered in ASME B 18.6.4, ‘Thread Forming and Thread Cutting Tapping Screws and Metallic Drive Screws’.) The primary objective of the specification is to insure that screws form or cut mating threads in materials of construction into which they are normally driven, without deforming their own thread and without breaking during assembly or service.
This SAE Standard covers the dimensional and general specifications, including performance requirements, for carbon steel self-drilling tapping screws suitable for use in general applications having point Styles 2, 3, 4, and 5. It is the objective of this document to ensure that carbon steel self-drilling tapping screws, by meeting the mechanical and performance requirements specified, shall drill a hole and form or cut mating threads in materials into which they are driven without deforming their own thread and without breaking during assembly.
This SAE Part Standard covers selected inch dimensioned tapping screws and metallic drive screws manufactured in accordance with American Society for Mechanical Engineers dimensional standards. This SAE standard covers material most often used in ship systems and equipment but its use may be applied wherever fasteners of the covered materials are used. This standard permits the fasteners to be identified and ordered by a Part Identification Number (PIN) as defined in this standard.
ISO 3506-4:2009 specifies the mechanical properties of tapping screws made of austenitic, martensitic and ferritic steel grades of corrosion-resistant stainless steels, when tested over an ambient temperature range of 10 °C to 35 °C. Properties vary at higher or lower temperatures. It applies to tapping screws with threads from ST2,2 up to and including ST8, in accordance with ISO 1478. It does not apply to screws with special properties such as weldability.
This inch series standard covers requirements for steel, self-drilling, tapping screws suitable for use in general engineering applications. The objective of this standard is to ensure that self-drilling tapping screws, by meeting the mechanical and performance requirements specified, shall drill a hole and form or cut mating threads in materials into which they are driven, without deforming their own thread and without breaking during assembly.
This standard covers requirements for metric steel, self-drilling, tapping screws suitable for use in general engineering applications. The objective of this standard is to ensure that self-drilling tapping screws, by meeting the mechanical and performance requirements specified, shall drill a hole and form or cut mating threads in materials into which they are driven, without deforming their own thread and without breaking during assembly.
This International Standard specifies the properties of heat treated screws with a tapping screw thread in accordance with ISO 1478, and which are designed with a drilling point which automatically drills the core hole for the screw during assembly. Such screws then automatically form the mating screw thread, either in a non-cutting or in a cutting operation, with the aid of the threaded portion of the screw adjoining the drilling point. The purpose of this International Standard is to ensure that the screws are able to drill their core hole and form their mating screw thread without becoming distorted or fracturing in the process, provided that no overstressing has occurred. Consequently the following characteristics are regarded as representing the most important aspects for the assessment of the mechanical and operational characteristics of a drilling screw: surface hardness; capability of core hole drilling and forming of the mating female screw thread; torsional strength.
