Value Collection TSI0370075S0-100BX Thumb Screw 3/8-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION TSI0370075S0-100BX is a Grade 2 steel thumb screw with a 3/8-16 UNC thread and an oval head profile. It measures 0.75 inches overall length and carries a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance. The screw includes a shoulder, providing a positive stop during installation and improved resistance to pull-through in panel and fixture applications. This fastener ships in a box of 100 pieces and is sized for use in light mechanical assemblies, equipment enclosures, and jig or fixture work where frequent hand-tightening and loosening is required.

This thumb screw is suited for light-duty industrial, electrical enclosure, and mechanical assembly applications where tool-free fastening is needed. The oval head design allows comfortable finger grip during repeated adjustments. The 3/8-16 UNC thread is a standard coarse-thread pitch widely used in North American trade and manufacturing environments. It is appropriate for use in sheet metal panels, instrument housings, access covers, and similar assemblies where hand operation replaces wrench-driven fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand without tools in most applications. Verify the mating tapped hole is clean and free of debris before threading the screw. Apply thread lubricant or anti-seize if the fastener will be exposed to moisture or installed in a dissimilar metal assembly. Torque requirements vary by application — consult applicable assembly specifications before use in structural or load-bearing connections.
