Wing Nuts (Inch Series)

This standard is being maintained under Stabilized Maintenance. Stabilized maintenance is an option for maintenance of a standard that requires status review every 10 years rather than revision or reaffirmation every 5 years. The Standards Committee shall consider all requests and recommendations for change to standards maintained under the stabilized maintenance option from any materially affected and interested party. The request shall be made in writing and should include the rationale for the particular request in order to facilitate review by the Committee.

This standard covers complete general and dimensional data for nine various types and styles of wing nuts. Thumb screws, and wing screws recognized as American National Standard are included in ASME B18.6.8. The inclusion of dimensional data in this standard is not intended to imply that all the products described are stock production sizes. Purchasers should consult with suppliers concerning availability of products.
