TAPTITE 2000®

Thread Rolling Screws and Bolts

Further information

Taptite 2000 - small

TAPTITE 2000® fasteners are high performance thread rolling screws specially designed to lower your in-place fastening costs.
TAPTITE 2000® screws form internal threads into plain holes in ductile materials upon initial installation, which:

  • Eliminates the need to pre-tap the nut member
  • Reduces problems associated with assembling screws and bolts into pre-tapped holes, such as cross-threading

Features

  • Trilobular™ configuration
  • Radius Profile Thread™
  • Roll forms own work-hardened mating threads
  • Available with TORX Plus® Drive System

Benefits

  • Reduces friction
  • Increases prevailing torque
  • Resists loosening caused by vibration
  • Lower end load requirements
  • Lowers thread forming torque without sacrificing performance
  • Higher, more uniform drive-to-fail ratio
  • Increased drive-to-strip ratio
  • Resist internal thread stripping
  • Excellent axial alignment
  • Results in higher strength internal threads due to the cold flow/work hardening that occurs during the forming of the nut thread
  • Formed thread can accept metric fastener

Design Guidelines

  • Drive Systems: All styles available; TORX Plus® Drive System recommended
  • Point Style: Standard TAPTITE® point; also available in SP™ (short point) and CA point
  • Materials: Low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel
  • Finishes: Will accept all typical finishes
