Installation Notes

This thumb screw is installed by hand and does not require a wrench or driver under normal use. Ensure the mating thread in the receiving component matches 5/16-18 UNC before installation. Inspect threads for damage or debris before tightening. Do not exceed hand-tight torque, as iron fasteners at this size can be damaged by over-tightening with tools.
