Extra Long 1/2''-1 1/2'' Wing Nut Cleco Fasteners

Extra long wing-nut cleco fasteners. The wing nut (KW) series is a hand operated clamp with a wide range of grip force. It is best suited for low-production settings where additional tools (pliers, wrenches, ratchets, etc.) are not required. This allows for application in areas with limited space. The 'free-wheeling' wing-nut is easy to grip and will back completely off while still remaining intact with the body. Cleco Fasteners are color coded for easy identification.
