Value Collection 1-CDJ-10-17- Iron Thumb Screw 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 1-CDJ-10-17- is a winged iron thumb screw designed for tool-free fastening in light-duty mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and enclosures. Sized at 1/4-20 UNC threading with a 3/4 inch length under the head, it features a winged head that provides sufficient grip for hand-tightening without tools. The head measures 1-3/8 inches in diameter and 5/8 inches in height. A zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor service environments. This fastener is commonly installed by HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service technicians when securing access panels, junction boxes, or lightweight brackets in trade applications.

This thumb screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where frequent panel removal or adjustment is required. The winged head design allows repeated hand-tightening and loosening without a screwdriver, making it appropriate for service access points on equipment enclosures, control panels, and similar assemblies. The shoulder-style body provides a positive seat against mating surfaces, helping to maintain consistent clamping.

Key Features

• Winged head allows tool-free installation and removal by hand
• 1/4-20 UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes
• With-shoulder design provides a positive seat against mating surfaces
• Zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for indoor use
• Iron construction at material grade 32510
• Compact 0.04 pound weight suitable for lightweight panel and enclosure applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fastener for equipment enclosures, access panels, and mechanical assemblies that use a standard 1/4-20 UNC tapped hole.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand without tools in most applications. Ensure the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading. Do not overtighten beyond hand-snug to avoid stripping the iron threads. Always de-energize or shut down associated equipment before removing or replacing fasteners on electrical enclosures or HVAC panels.
