Thread forming screw TORX DIN 7500C M8x16 galvanized

Product detailed description

The TORX DIN 7500C M8x16 zinc-plated thread forming screw is specially designed for creating solid threads in metal materials. This screw is made of steel and is electroplated, which increases its corrosion resistance and extends its service life. Thread forming screws such as this one are designed to form threads directly into the material without the need for prior thread cutting, which simplifies assembly and reduces installation time.

The screw has a metric M8 thread and a length of 16 mm. It is equipped with a cylindrical rounded head with a TORX type groove, which is known for its ability to effectively transmit torque. The TORX groove, also known as a hexalobular internal drive, ensures better contact between the tool and the screw, minimizing the risk of damage to the screw head and increasing assembly accuracy and reliability.

The DIN 7500C standard, to which this screw is manufactured, specifies the requirements for thread-forming screws, including their mechanical properties and geometry. This standard ensures that the screw meets high quality standards and is suitable for use in various industrial applications where high bond strength and vibration resistance are required.

The screw is ideal for use in the automotive industry, mechanical engineering and other areas where reliable and strong threads in metal components need to be created. Its zinc-plated surface ensures long-term corrosion protection, which is crucial for applications in harsh environments.
