Advantages
Thread forming screws form their mating threads
eliminating the need for tapping. The thread formed
is a regular thread (metric or inch), meaning,
thread-forming screws can be replaced with
conventional screws.
Naturally, thread-forming screws may be used in
tapped holes as well. Thus, the product range can
be optimised.
