Value Collection TSI-100150P0-100BX Thumb Screw 10-24

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TSI-100150P0-100BX is a zinc-plated steel thumb screw designed for hand-tightening applications where tools are not required or practical. With a 10-24 UNC thread size and an oval head profile, this fastener provides a comfortable grip surface for repeated manual adjustment or removal. The overall length is 1.5 inches, and the Grade 2 steel construction delivers adequate tensile strength for light-duty clamping, panel retention, and access cover fastening found in electrical enclosures, HVAC equipment panels, and general mechanical assemblies. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments. This box contains 100 pieces.

This thumb screw is suited for residential and light commercial applications where frequent hand access is needed — such as removable service panels, filter frames, junction box covers, and equipment access doors. The oval head style sits flush or slightly proud of the mating surface, making it easy to locate and turn without tools. The 10-24 UNC thread is a common standard size compatible with a wide range of tapped holes and threaded inserts used in sheet metal and light structural components across HVAC, electrical, and general trade work.

Key Features

• 10-24 UNC thread — standard sizing for broad compatibility with tapped sheet metal and threaded inserts
• Oval head design provides ergonomic grip for hand operation without tools
• 1.5-inch overall length suits typical panel thickness and standoff applications
• Grade 2 steel construction balances strength and cost for light-duty fastening
• Zinc-plated finish offers basic corrosion resistance in dry indoor environments
• Sold in a box of 100 pieces — suitable for stocking or volume service work

Compatibility

Designed as a standard UNC thumb screw for use in any application requiring a 10-24 tapped hole, including equipment access panels, enclosures, and filter frames common in HVAC, electrical, and light mechanical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools under normal hand-tightening conditions; however, verify thread engagement depth is sufficient before applying load. Inspect mating tapped holes or threaded inserts for damage or cross-threading before installation. In electrical enclosures, de-energize the panel before servicing any fasteners securing access covers. Do not use these fasteners in structural or high-vibration applications where a torque-critical bolted joint is required.
