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

Product Description

The Value Collection 1-1CP-10-17- is an iron thumb screw with a winged head profile, designed for hand-tightening applications where tools are not practical or convenient. Threaded 10-24 UNC, it carries a 1-1/2 inch length under the head and an overall length of 2 inches. The winged head measures 1-1/16 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch in height, giving a comfortable grip surface. A zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for general indoor use. This fastener is used by HVAC technicians, electricians, panel fabricators, and general tradespeople in enclosure, panel, and equipment assembly work.

This thumb screw is suited for residential and commercial applications where hand-removable fastening is required. Typical use cases include access panel retention, enclosure covers, and equipment service doors where frequent removal is expected. The shouldered design adds stability and consistent positioning at the mounting point. The iron construction and zinc finish make it appropriate for dry or lightly humid indoor environments.

Key Features

• Winged head allows hand-tightening and removal without tools
• 10-24 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• 1-1/2 inch length under head accommodates typical panel and cover thicknesses
• With-shoulder design for accurate seating and lateral stability
• Zinc finish over iron for basic corrosion protection
• Lightweight at 0.02 pounds per fastener

Compatibility

Designed as a hand-drive replacement or service fastener for standard 10-24 UNC tapped holes in enclosures, access panels, and equipment covers.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools under normal service conditions. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not exceed hand-tight torque — using tools on a winged head can strip the thread or damage the wing casting. For electrical enclosures, verify that fastener material and finish meet any applicable NEC requirements for the installation environment.
