FASTITE® 2000™
Sheet metal thread forming screws and bolts created to deliver cost-effective and optimum joint performance in sheet metal applications as thin as 0.7mm (.028 in.).
Fastite® 2000™ screws feature a thread-forming design created to deliver cost-effective and optimum joint performance in sheet metal applications as thin as 0.7mm (.028 in.) This unique design employs many of the design innovations for high-performance thread-rolling fasteners featured in Taptite 2000® fasteners.
- Features
Tapered Thread Root Adjacent to Head
Undercut Head
Radius Profile™ Thread with Twin-lead Helix Angle
Blunt CA Point
Trilobular™ Body
Available with TORX PLUS® Drive System - Benefits
Maintains full thread major diameter close to the bearing surface
Absorbs material extruded by the screw and increases the underhead contact area to enhance thread engagement and resistance to stripping
Provides a mating thread system in which diametrically opposed threads are engaged
Provides low thread-forming torque with high resistance to failure
Head seats squarely compared to off-axis tendency of sheet metal screws
Allows entry into small holes to create self-extrusion of the sheet metal and to increase resistance to stripping
Provides resistance to loosening caused by vibration.
Significantly extends tool life
Ideal drive system for maximum torque transfer - Design Guidelines
Thread Style: Radius Profile™ thread with twin-lead helix angle
Head Styles: Hex flange undercut head
Drive Systems: All styles available; TORX PLUS® Drive System recommended
Point Style: Blunt CA point
Materials: Low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel
Finishes: Will accept all typical fastener finishes
