Electro Hardware THS1013M01F07 Brass Thumb Screw 6-32

Product Description

The ELECTRO HARDWARE THS1013M01F07 is a 6-32 UNC brass thumb screw with a knurled head and shoulder, designed for tool-free fastening in light-duty mechanical and electrical assemblies. The knurled head provides a secure grip for hand-tightening without a driver, while the integral shoulder controls seating depth. The screw is machined from Grade 1 F brass and finished in nickel per ASTM B633 standards. Overall length is 0.8125 inches, with a head diameter of 0.375 inches and a head height of 0.1875 inches. The shoulder diameter measures 0.3120 inches with a shoulder length of 0.125 inches. Licensed trades and assembly technicians working on enclosures, panels, and instrument housings will find this fastener straightforward to install and remove repeatedly.

This thumb screw is suited for applications requiring frequent manual access, such as control panel covers, instrument enclosures, junction box lids, and rack-mounted equipment assemblies. The 6-32 UNC thread is a common size in light electrical and electronic hardware. The nickel finish provides mild corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor or sheltered environments. Installers working on HVAC controls, electrical enclosures, or light mechanical assemblies will encounter this thread standard regularly.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools under normal hand-tightening conditions. Ensure the mating threaded insert or tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. De-energize any electrical enclosure before servicing panel hardware in accordance with applicable NFPA 70 lockout-tagout procedures. Do not over-torque by mechanical means, as brass threads can be damaged by power tools.
