FAQ

How tight should a brass wing nut be?
Hand tight only. Pliers can bend or break the wings on a brass wing nut.

What does 10-24 or 1/4-20 mean?
The first number is the diameter (a screw gauge number such as #10, or a fraction of an inch) and the second is threads per inch. A 10-24 screw is #10 diameter with 24 threads per inch.

Do brass fasteners rust?
No. Brass contains no iron, so it does not rust. It will tarnish and darken over time, especially outdoors. Polish it to keep it bright or let it age to a natural patina.
