Jet jt9-ts-2285162 Truss Head Tapping Screw

Product Description

The JET jt9-ts-2285162 is a cross-recessed truss head tapping screw designed as a replacement fastener for JET power tools and accessories. Truss head screws feature a wide, low-profile dome head that distributes clamping load over a larger surface area, making them well suited for securing sheet metal panels, guards, and housings where a standard pan or hex head would not seat flush. This screw is a direct OEM replacement part intended for technicians and service professionals performing field or shop repairs on JET equipment.

This fastener is used in the assembly and repair of JET power tool units, including tool housings, covers, and internal mounting points that require a self-tapping thread form. It is appropriate for service applications where the original screw has stripped, been lost, or must be replaced during a rebuild. Installation is typically performed by equipment repair technicians and woodworking machinery service professionals in shop environments.

Key Features

• Cross-recessed drive for use with standard Phillips-style screwdrivers or bits
• Truss head profile provides wide bearing surface and low-profile seating
• Self-tapping thread form cuts its own thread in mating material without a pre-tapped hole
• OEM replacement part sourced directly from JET for accurate fit and function

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM replacement fastener for JET power tools and accessories requiring the jt9-ts-2285162 screw specification.

Installation Notes

Power down and unplug any tool completely before beginning fastener replacement or disassembly. Use a correctly sized Phillips screwdriver or bit to avoid cam-out and head damage. Do not overtighten self-tapping screws into plastic or thin sheet metal housings, as the threads can strip. Follow the tool manufacturer service documentation for torque guidance specific to the assembly being serviced.
