RS PRO Thumb Screws


Introducing the range of RS PRO Thumb Screws, a high-quality fastener solution for a use in a wide range of applications with a hand-tightening/loosening feature. Each fastener is made from steel with a zinc coating and offers a shoulder/no shoulder option, making them much more cost-effective than their stainless-steel counterparts, while still offering a high level of protection against surface rust and oxidisation.

Features and Benefits:


  • This range of RS PRO fasteners is ideal where hand-tight fastening is enough to support lightweight applications, especially where repeated removal and re-installation is required

  • Manufactured with a zinc finish, each fastener provides good protection against surface rust and oxidisation and offers good lubricity to the threads of the fastener

  • In addition to this, the zinc-plated steel fasteners are much more cost effective than stainless steel and is also widely recyclable, making them a much more sustainable option

  • Available in a wide range of sizes

Applications:


Thumb screws are designed specifically for ease of use and simplicity. They are used for applications where the fastener needs to be tightened or loosed by hand, most commonly when something needs to be repeatedly adjusted, re-installed or removed. The main benefit of thumb screws is that they are easy to install and drastically reduce the risk of overtightening and are also useful in areas where space is limited, and tools can’t be used. Because of this, however, these fasteners are not recommended for applications that require structural support and security, or high vibration environments, as there is an increased risk in them loosening over time. Thumb screws are most commonly used in:
  • Household applications

  • Electronics

  • Consumer products
