    Stainless Steel Thumb Head Hex-Drive Precision Shoulder Screws

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Shoulder Screws. Stainless Steel Thumb Head Hex-Drive Precision Shoulder Screws.
    Take a hands-on approach with screws designed to be adjusted without tools. Twist the knob by hand for easy adjustment in maintenance-heavy environments. The hex drive offers the option for added torque. They are engineered to tight tolerances for assemblies that require smooth and accurate movement, with shoulder diameters twice as precise as those on standard-fit screws.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these screws won't rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.

    Hex-Drive Plastic-Head Thumb Screws

    Twist these thumb screws with a hex key when you need more torque than fingers can provide. You can also use a hex key to unfasten them in cramped spaces such as small control boxes. When fastening these thumb screws by hand, the knurled texture of the head creates extra grip as you twist. These thumb screws combine the strength of stainless steel with a lightweight plastic head that won't rust.
    Length is measured from under the head.
    18-8 Stainless Steel with Acetal Head—With a stainless steel body and an acetal head, these screws resist moisture and are chemical resistant.
