Professional Applications & Engineering Value

This zinc-plated steel thumb screw delivers exceptional performance in industrial settings where frequent adjustments and reliable fastening are critical. The combination of UNC coarse thread spacing and Class 2A thread fit ensures quick installation and secure holding power in wood, plastic, and metal applications. The spade head design provides ample surface area for comfortable hand-tightening without tools, making it ideal for access panels, machinery guards, and electronic enclosures requiring regular maintenance. The 40,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell B55 hardness guarantee the screw maintains structural integrity under vibration and mechanical stress, while the zinc plating offers corrosion protection in humid or industrial atmospheres.

Specification Summary & Compliance

Manufactured to precise Class 2A thread tolerances with UNC 5/16"-18 coarse thread specifications and right-hand threading. The fastener meets RoHS 3 (2015/863/EU) compliance standards and features full threading along the entire 1½" length. Construction utilizes zinc-plated steel with spade head configuration (7/8" width × 11/16" height) for optimal manual operation and corrosion resistance.
