Value Collection TSFI-100100S0-100BX Thumb Screw 10-32

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TSFI-100100S0-100BX is a steel thumb screw with a 10-32 thread size, oval head, and a shoulder design. It measures 1 inch overall length and carries a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor fastener applications. This box-quantity fastener is suited for assembly technicians, maintenance mechanics, and machine builders who need a reliable hand-tightened fastener for panel covers, access doors, and light mechanical assemblies. The UNC/UNF thread standard and Grade 2 steel construction make it a straightforward utility fastener for general industrial and commercial use.

This thumb screw is used in applications where frequent tool-free removal and reinstallation is required. The oval head profile provides a low-profile grip surface while the shoulder design helps control insertion depth and lateral movement in the mating component. Common install scenarios include electronic enclosures, instrument panels, equipment housings, and light-duty jig and fixture assemblies. This product ships in a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per box, making it appropriate for stocking fastener bins or completing moderate-volume assembly runs.

Key Features

• 10-32 thread size conforming to UNC/UNF thread standards
• Oval head profile for low-profile hand-tightening grip
• With-shoulder design for controlled seating depth
• 1 inch overall length for compatibility with standard panel and enclosure thicknesses
• Zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments
• Grade 2 steel construction for general-purpose mechanical strength

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose replacement or stock fastener for assemblies requiring a 10-32 threaded, oval-head thumb screw with shoulder in a 1 inch overall length.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand without tools in most applications. Verify that the mating threaded insert or nut plate matches the 10-32 thread specification before installation. Avoid overtightening, as thumb screws are designed for hand-torque loads only and the Grade 2 steel is not rated for high-torque mechanical fastening. Inspect the zinc plating for damage before use in environments where corrosion resistance is a concern.
