Stainless Steel Thread Forming Screws

Thread-forming screws form their threads in the mating material. The apparent advantage to thread forming screws is the elimination of nuts or a taping operation, which can save money and reduce the number of parts used. Another advantage of using thread-forming screws is the prevention of vibration loosening. Because these screws have their mating threads, there is no gap between the male and female threads, which is an important reason for not easy vibration loosening.
