What are the enhancements made to TAPTITE 2000® that make it a better performing fastener than the TAPTITE II® or DUO-TAPTITE® fastener?
• TAPTITE 2000® fasteners were developed with two goals in mind. First, was to maintain the low thread forming torque of TAPTITE II® fasteners, and second, was to maintain or increase the high failure torque and other structural characteristics attained with DUO-TAPTITE® fasteners. A stabilizing point thread feature was used to lower the end load required to start thread forming and a unique Radius Profile thread form was developed to achieve efficient torque-tension relationships. All of the above features provide a performance level superior to any other thread forming fastener on the market.
