Metric 18-8 Stainless Steel Flanged Knurled-Head Thumb Nuts
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/951/95150a170c3-b01-digital-master1582304715-p9@halfx_637178800746277499.png?ver=imagenotfound)
Made from 18-8 stainless steel, these thumb nuts have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic. The flange distributes the load over a large area and reduces stress where the nut meets the material surface. A knurled head provides a slip-resistant grip for controlled adjustment.
Passivated stainless steel nuts provide added protection against oxidation and corrosion.

Metric Brass Flanged Knurled-Head Thumb Nuts
![](/prerenderstable/mvPRE/contents/gfx/imagecache/951/95150a170c1-b01-digital-master1582304720-p9@halfx_637178800997693760.png?ver=imagenotfound)
Made from zinc-plated brass, these thumb nuts are corrosion resistant in wet environments, electrically conductive, and nonmagnetic. The flange distributes the load over a large area and reduces stress where the nut meets the material surface. A knurled head provides a slip-resistant grip for controlled adjustment.
