Materials, grades, finishes and treatments
| Material | Requirements | Finish |
|---|---|---|
| Case-hardened / hardened steel | Tapping screw requirements; specify execution | nickel plated; white zinc plated — documented VIPA executions |
| Stainless steel A2 | Specify tapping screw hardness class | To be specified |
| Stainless steel A4 | Specify tapping screw hardness class | To be specified |
Material, coating, hardness and execution are confirmed in the quotation. Not all combinations are implied. Metric screw property classes such as 8.8 must not be automatically transferred to tapping screws.

Standards, executions and application
The screw forms its thread in a prepared hole: it is not self-drilling. Pilot-hole diameter, sheet thickness and material must be checked by assembly trials; no universal pilot-hole size is specified. ST thread is distinct from metric M thread. Related DIN, UNI and ISO references do not declare dimensional identity.
Cone point; other executions require drawing verification.
