Value Collection R63283163 Thumb Screw 10-32 Oval Head

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63283163 is an 18-8 stainless steel thumb screw with a 10-32 UNF thread and an oval head profile. Designed for hand-tightening applications where tools are not practical, this fastener delivers corrosion resistance and a clean finish typical of 18-8 austenitic stainless steel. The oval head measures 0.42 inches in diameter and 0.48 inches in height, providing a low-profile grip surface. At 3/4 inch overall length, it fits standard panel, enclosure, and light-duty mechanical assembly applications. This is a shoulder-free design, meaning the full threaded shank runs the complete length of the fastener.

This thumb screw is suited for light mechanical assemblies, electrical enclosures, instrumentation panels, HVAC equipment access covers, and other applications where frequent manual removal and reinstallation is required. The 10-32 UNF thread is a common fine-pitch size found in electronic and light mechanical hardware. The 18-8 stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for indoor and mildly corrosive environments. Electricians, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance professionals commonly use this fastener when servicing equipment with hand-accessible panels.

Installation Notes

Hand-tighten only. Applying a wrench or driver to an oval-head thumb screw can deform the head and damage mating surfaces. Verify the receiving thread is 10-32 UNF before installation. In electrical or HVAC panel applications, de-energize the equipment before opening access covers and replacing fasteners per applicable NEC or equipment manufacturer guidelines.
