TAPTITE 2000® FASTENERS FEATURING THE INNOVATIVE RADIUS PROFILE™ THREAD Taptite 2000® high performance thread rolling fasteners are specially designed to lower your in-place fastening costs. Taptite 2000® fasteners 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 AND BENEFITS Trilobular™ Configuration ° Reduces friction ° Increases prevailing torque Resists loosening caused by vibration Lower end load requirements Radius Profile™ Thread ° 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 Roll Forms Own Work-hardened Mating Threads ° Results in higher strength internal threads due to the cold flow/ work hardening that occurs during the forming of the nut thread Available with TORX PLUS® Drive System ° Significantly extends tool life ° Ideal drive system for maximum torque transfer Specifications Thread Style Radius Profile™ thread with twin-lead helix angle Head Styles Undercut head Drive Systems All styles available; TORX PLUS® Drive System recommended Point Style Standard Taptite®point; also available in SP™ (short point) and CA point Low carbon steel, medium carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel Will accept all typical fastener finishes Industry Applications Installation Systems Taptite®2000™ fasteners are installed with standard hand tools and automated systems already in use in your assembly process.
