These custom Grade 5 #12 X 1-3/4″ type AB sheet metal screws were manufactured to SAE J429 specifications with 25-34 core hardness, 120 KSI min tensile strength, and 92 KSI min yield strength. Dacromet zinc flake coating was applied to complete the parts and a raised dot was incorporated to help our construction customer easily distinguish between these Grade 5 screws and the standard low carbon version also in use.

These are custom chrome plated screws made using the barrel plating process done domestically in the USA.  They are type A sheet metal screws made in 316 stainless steel material specifically to our customer’s print.  The overall process to manufacture the screws and to get them barrel chrome plated took approximately 12 weeks.  Depending on the volume involved we can work out the ideal domestic or overseas strategy for any chrome plated parts, both RoHS and non-RoHS compliant.

At first glance these custom deep recess phillips drive screws seem like ordinary sheet metal screws.  For the most part that is true – the Type A thread and head dimensions are essentially per IFI specs without any modifications.  A closer look however will reveal a significantly deeper recess in the phillips drive.  Standard #8 phillips drive for a pan head reaches a depth of .108″ while this custom part has a recess depth of .120″ to .122″ – a significant difference when it comes to improved engagement and faster/easier use on the production floor.  This improvement in speed and engagement was the main driver behind our customer’s request for this modified sheet metal screw, particularly important when some of the depth is used for paint when the screw heads are painted a variety of different colors.

The factory engineers had to find an optimal balance between recess depth and structural integrity as going even slightly deeper would significantly compromise the strength right underneath the head.  Different variations were tested until a proper balance we configured and production went forward full steam.
