Value Collection 1-1CG-10-17- Iron Thumb Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1-1CG-10-17- is a winged iron thumb screw designed for hand-tightened fastening applications where tools are not required. It features a 10-24 UNC thread, a 1/2-inch length under the head, and a zinc finish for basic corrosion resistance. The winged head provides a grip surface that allows technicians and installers to drive and remove the screw by hand, making it well suited for panels, enclosures, and access covers that require frequent removal. The shoulder design adds alignment stability during installation. This fastener is installed by hand by HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general maintenance personnel.

This thumb screw is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications where hand-accessible fastening is needed. Typical uses include securing access panels on HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and similar assemblies. The 10-24 UNC thread is a widely used size in trade equipment, and the winged head style allows for tool-free service calls where repeated panel removal is part of routine maintenance or inspection work.
