Therefore, they are most suitable for situations where ease of access and adjustments take precedence over extreme security or torque. Thumb screws are a type of screw designed to be tightened and loosened by hand without the need for additional tools such as screwdrivers or wrenches. They typically have a large, knurled or ridged head that can be easily gripped and turned using your thumb and fingers. This design makes them convenient for applications where frequent adjustments or removal of screws are required, especially in cases where using tools might be impractical or time-consuming. These can be used to secure material without using a wrench.
