Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is the difference between DIN464 and DIN653 thumb screws?
- A: DIN464 has a high step head — a tall, large-diameter knurled head that provides maximum grip and hand torque. DIN653 has a flat head — a low-profile, disc-shaped knurled head for applications where head height is limited. Choose DIN464 for maximum grip; choose DIN653 where clearance is restricted.
- Q: Can these be tightened with a spanner if needed?
- A: The knurled cylindrical head is not designed for spanner use. For applications requiring tool-tightening, use a standard hex bolt instead. These are designed for hand tightening only.
- Q: What size do I need for glass curtain wall adjustment?
- A: Glass curtain wall point fixing systems typically use M6, M8, or M10 thumb screws depending on the system specification. M6 is most common for light glazing systems; M8–M10 for structural curtain wall applications. Check your curtain wall system specification before ordering.
