Self-tapping screw 6.3×45 aisi 316 countersunk code: a4-7982-06.3×045 – Osculati

Countersunk self-tapping TS AISI screw 6.3×45 Osculati

The Auto TS 6.3×45 in AISI 316 stainless steel is a self-tapping screw offered by Osculati, identified by supplier code a4-7982-06.3×045. It is a component designed for hardware those working in the nautical field and in the’onboard systems, where the choice of stainless steel is common for reasons of consistency with the usage environment and with other fastening elements on board.

The size 6.3×45 allows precise identification of the correct variant within the range, simplifying reorders, replacements, and standardization of materials in the workshop or on site.

Product features and details

Type: self-tapping screw

This screw belongs to the family of self-tapping screws, commonly used when a practical fastening is desired in assembly and maintenance interventions. In technical contexts, the choice of a self-tapping screw is often linked to the need to work quickly and with easily available components, maintaining an orderly and repeatable installation logic.

Material: stainless steel AISI 316

The declared material is AISI 316, a common choice in the nautical field and in applications where stainless steel components are preferred. Using an AISI 316 screw helps maintain consistency with other stainless steel small parts and accessories present on boats and systems.

Format and identification

• Size: 6.3×45
• Supplier code: a4-7982-06.3×045
• Supplier: Osculati S.r.l.

Note on the head

Within the available information on the datasheet, there are different references to the head shape (title with indication “countersunk” and existing description with indication “pan head”). To avoid ambiguity during ordering or replacement, it is recommended to verify the actual geometry by comparing the Osculati code a4-7982-06.3×045 with the manufacturer's catalog/images or with the already installed sample.

Typical applications

The screw Auto TS 6.3×45 is indicated as a hardware component for assemblies and maintenance interventions in the nautical field and onboard systems. In particular, it can be considered when:

• you need to carry out restorations or replacements of small parts on onboard accessories and components;
• you want to maintain a screw supply homogeneous by material (stainless steel) and coding;
• you work on installations where a screw is useful self-tapping to simplify fastening operations;
• you manage activities of shipyard, refitting or scheduled maintenance, with the need for uniquely identifiable spare parts.

Selecting the correct size remains a fundamental step: the wording 6.3×45 allows aligning the spare part with the needs of the existing assembly or the ongoing project, reducing the risk of errors during procurement.

Usage and important notes

Preliminary check of the variant

Before purchase or installation, it is good practice to verify:

• the measurement requested by the assembly (6.3×45);
• the (5110407) with the requested replacement; Osculati (a4-7982-06.3×045);
• the head geometry (countersunk/rounded) depending on the component to be fixed and the available seat.

Compatibility with existing materials and components

In the absence of further technical details in the datasheet (for example, type of drive, recommended pilot hole or support specifications), compatibility must be evaluated case by case: material to be fixed, thicknesses, presence of countersunk seats or visible surfaces, and aesthetic/functional needs of the fastening point.

Tips for spare parts management

For shipyards, maintenance personnel, and owners managing multiple interventions over time, it is useful to archive the complete reference:

• Product: Auto TS 6.3×45 AISI 316
• Code: a4-7982-06.3×045
• Brand/Supplier: Osculati

This information simplifies the reconstruction of the history and reduces procurement times when it is necessary to replicate a fastening already performed.

Summary

The self-tapping screw Auto TS 6.3×45 in AISI 316 by Osculati (code a4-7982-06.3×045) is a hardware solution oriented to assembly and maintenance in the nautical field. Correct identification through size and code is the key element to choose the right variant and manage reorders efficiently.
