Value Collection 0-CD-724B87- Wing Nut 1/4-20 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0-CD-724B87- is a standard wing nut manufactured from steel with a zinc plated finish for corrosion resistance. It is designed for hand-tightening applications where frequent removal and reinstallation is required without tools. The 1/4-20 UNC right-hand thread is one of the most common fastener threads used across HVAC, plumbing, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies. With a wing span of 1 inch and a wing height of 0.47 inches, this nut provides sufficient grip surface for finger-tightening on panels, covers, and access doors. The steel grade 1015/1025 construction delivers adequate strength for light-duty fastening tasks in trade and maintenance environments.

This wing nut is suited for residential and light commercial applications where hand-accessible fastening points are required. Common install scenarios include equipment access panels, electrical junction box covers, ductwork components, and other assemblies that require periodic servicing. The standard series 724 profile fits standard 1/4-20 UNC threaded studs and bolts. Tradespeople in HVAC, electrical, and plumbing fields regularly keep a supply of these on hand for field repairs and installations.

Installation Notes

Wing nuts of this type are installed and removed by hand without tools. De-energize or shut off any equipment before servicing panels or covers secured with wing nuts.
