Why Choose This Screw?
If your machine’s parts list calls for 114818, using this exact self-tap screw ensures proper thread engagement and secure fastening, preserving integrity of housings / manifolds / spray rigs. Using generic or incorrect screws may result in mis-fit, leaks, or mechanical failure. Because it’s often a “special-order” item, confirm availability with supplier before ordering.
Frequently Asked Questions
“Self-Tap” means the screw will cut or form its own thread as it's driven into the mating material — so pre-drilling may not be required (depending on material) and installation is faster.
It’s not recommended — generic screws may lack correct thread-cutting profile, material strength or head design, which can lead to improper sealing, loosening, or thread stripping under pressure or vibration. Always use OEM 114818 when specified.
