Value Collection R63081440 Wing Nut 10-24 Unc Stainless Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63081440 is a standard wing nut threaded to 10-24 UNC specification and manufactured from 18-8 stainless steel. It is used to secure fastened assemblies that require frequent hand-tightening and loosening without tools. The right-hand thread engages standard 10-24 UNC male fasteners. With a wing span of 0.91 inches and a wing height of 0.47 inches, this nut suits compact panel, cover, and access-door applications common in HVAC, electrical enclosures, plumbing access panels, and light mechanical assemblies. Trade professionals and maintenance technicians install these wherever a toolless, corrosion-resistant fastener is needed.

This wing nut is suited for both indoor and outdoor applications where moisture or corrosive environments would degrade standard carbon steel hardware. Typical install scenarios include equipment access covers, junction box covers, filter housings, and service panels in residential and light commercial settings. The 18-8 stainless steel grade resists rust and mild chemical exposure, making it a practical choice in mechanical rooms, pool equipment enclosures, and coastal installations.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC right-hand thread for compatibility with standard unified coarse thread fasteners
• 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet and outdoor environments
• 0.91-inch wing span allows secure hand-tightening without tools
• 0.47-inch wing height provides adequate grip for repeated removal and reinstallation
• Silver finish consistent with standard stainless steel hardware appearance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or supplement for any assembly using 10-24 UNC threaded male fasteners requiring a hand-turn wing nut retention method.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — hand-tighten only to the torque appropriate for the application and mating fastener. De-energize and lock out electrical equipment before servicing any panel or enclosure where this hardware is used. Verify the mating bolt or screw is also 10-24 UNC before installation to avoid cross-threading. Follow applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines for enclosure fastener requirements.
