John Deere Hexagonal Flange Head Self-Tapping Screw, 0.32" X 3/4" - M168846

Key Features

• Hexagonal flange head design provides a broad bearing surface for load distribution and stable seating in panel and bracket assemblies.
• Self-tapping, externally threaded fastener that can either form its own mating thread or engage an existing internal thread, reducing the need for separate tapping steps.
• Through-hole versatility: inserts cleanly through parts and can be used with or without a pre-tapped hole, depending on substrate and mission requirements.
• Size specification: 0.32" thread diameter with a 0.75" (3/4") length, suitable for standard John Deere equipment interfaces and common sheet-metal applications.
• Drive type: hex drive compatible with common wrenches and sockets, enabling straightforward installation and removal.

Compatibility

• Through-hole assemblies: Designed to pass through holes in joining parts for rapid alignment and fastening
• Tapped/internal-thread joints: Capable of mating with preformed internal threads when a conventional thread engagement exists
• Self-tapping applications: Forms its own mating thread in compatible materials (substrate hardness and thickness determine suitability)
• Installation considerations: Ensure hole size and material thickness support a secure flange seating and the 0.32" major diameter without deformation; use a hex driver for consistent torque and removal reliability
