Value Collection R63283249 Thumb Screw 10-32 Oval Head Ss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63283249 is an 18-8 stainless steel thumb screw with a 10-32 UNF thread and an oval head profile. It is designed for hand-tightening applications where tools are not required or practical. The oval head provides a comfortable grip surface for repeated adjustment or removal. Measuring 1 inch in overall length with a head diameter of 0.42 inches and a head height of 0.48 inches, this fastener suits panel assemblies, enclosures, access covers, and equipment that requires frequent servicing. The 18-8 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light outdoor environments.

This thumb screw is appropriate for light-duty mechanical and electrical assembly work, including control panel covers, junction box lids, instrument enclosures, and similar applications where hand-operable fasteners are specified. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both professional tradespeople and maintenance technicians working in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, or general industrial settings where tool-free fastener access is needed.

Key Features

• 18-8 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in light-duty service environments
• 10-32 UNF thread for compatibility with fine-thread tapped holes in panels and enclosures
• Oval head profile for comfortable hand-tightening without tools
• 1 inch overall length suits standard panel and cover fastening applications
• Without shoulder design for flush or standard seating against mating surfaces
• Inch system of measurement with UNF thread standard

Compatibility

Designed as a hand-tightening fastener for fine-thread 10-32 UNF tapped holes in panels, enclosures, access covers, and similar assemblies requiring tool-free installation or removal.

Installation Notes

This thumb screw is installed by hand into a pre-tapped or threaded insert hole sized for 10-32 UNF threads. De-energize any electrical equipment before accessing panels or enclosures where this fastener is used. Do not over-tighten by applying tools to the head, as the oval profile is intended for hand torque only. Verify thread engagement depth against the mating material to ensure adequate hold.
