Value Collection 2-CD0-510670 Clamping Handle Nut 1/4-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 2-CD0-510670 is an adjustable clamping handle nut designed for secure, tool-free clamping applications in industrial, mechanical, and trade settings. Built from ductile iron to the 65-45-12 material specification, it delivers the tensile strength and ductility required for repeated clamping cycles without cracking or deforming. The handle measures 3.75 inches in length, providing sufficient leverage for hand-tightening. A zinc-plated finish protects against corrosion in light-duty environments. This type of hardware is commonly installed by maintenance technicians, machine builders, and equipment service professionals who need repeatable hand-actuated clamping on jigs, fixtures, guards, or panels.

This clamping handle nut is suited for use on machinery frames, enclosure panels, fixture plates, and similar assemblies where frequent access or adjustment is required. The 1/4-20 threaded connection is a standard unified coarse thread, making it compatible with the wide range of equipment that uses this fastener size. It is appropriate for both light industrial and general mechanical applications where a removable or adjustable clamping point is needed without tooling.

Key Features

• Ductile iron construction per material specification 65-45-12 for strength and impact resistance
• 3.75-inch handle length provides adequate hand leverage for secure clamping
• 1/4-20 unified coarse thread for broad compatibility with standard hardware
• Zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance in light-duty environments
• Handle nut connection type integrates clamping and fastening in a single component
• Flange outside diameter of 0.9375 inches for consistent seating and load distribution

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-thread clamping handle nut for use on any assembly with a 1/4-20 threaded stud or boss requiring hand-actuated clamping.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the handle nut is hand-tightened onto an existing 1/4-20 threaded stud. Before replacing or repositioning this hardware on powered equipment, de-energize and lock out the machine per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Verify that the mating thread is clean and undamaged before engagement to avoid cross-threading. Do not use a wrench or power tool on the handle to exceed hand-tight torque, as this can damage the ductile iron casting.
