Nylon Thumb Screw, Knurled Head, Slotted Drive, #6-32, 5/8" Length (Pack of 50) Feature
- Thumb Screws allow for simple "by-hand" installation
- Nylon 6/6 is suitable where non-conductivity, corrosion resistance, and cost are important considerations
- Knurled head provides extra grip for manual tightening
- Driven by a flat-bladed driver
- Coarse threads are better for brittle materials, and will assemble and disassemble more quickly than fine threads
Nylon 6/6 is a general purpose thermoplastic with outstanding resistance to organic chemicals, acids and alkalis. Nylon wears well against other surfaces; it is readily machinable and may be milled, turned and cut with conventional machine tools. It does exhibit some dimensional swelling in wet applications which should be taken into account with its use. Tensile strength of this material is 12,000 psi (pounds per square inch).
Usually found on thumb screws, a knurled surface on the head gives a better gripping surface, making it easier to tighten or loosen fasteners manually. Common applications for slotted screws include woodworking, although the drive style is not designed to be used with power drivers.
A threaded fastener's size name includes information about the major external diameter, followed by the threads per inch, which indicates if it is coarse or fine. Coarse threads are better when working with brittle materials; they are sturdier and are easier to thread and unthread compared to fine. Coarse threading also allows for thicker coatings and platings.
