Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Screws City butterfly wing screws, follow these guidelines:
- Compatibility: Ensure your mating component is threaded for an M8 bolt with a 1.25mm pitch. These will not function correctly in finer or coarser thread patterns.
- Installation: Simply insert the screw and turn clockwise using the butterfly wings until finger-tight. Ensure the threads are aligned correctly before turning to avoid cross-threading.
- Care: Keep the threads clean and free of debris. Since these are zinc-plated, avoid using them in high-humidity or outdoor salt-air environments, as the coating may fail over time. If they become stiff, a light coating of machine oil on the threads can improve performance.
