Wacker Neuson 5000163746 Thumb Screw 1/4-20 X 3/4

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Thumb Screw 1/4-20 X 3/4 designed for the BFS 2020AS and BFS 1318AS self-propelled walk-behind floor saws. As a direct genuine OEM component, the is manufactured to the exact thread specification and dimensional tolerances required by these saws, ensuring a flush, secure fit without rework or adjustment. Whether you are restoring a guard, panel, or access cover assembly on your BFS series saw, this thumb screw delivers the confident, tool-free fastening it was engineered to provide.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Thread Accuracy — Manufactured to the exact 1/4-20 thread pitch and 3/4 in. length spec, so it seats and engages cleanly in the factory-tapped hole without cross-threading or play.
• Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Matches the original fastener profile on the BFS 2020AS and BFS 1318AS, dropping straight into position with no modification to the receiving hardware.
• Built for BFS Series Floor Saws — Confirmed fitment for the BFS 2020AS walk-behind saw and the BFS 1318AS self-propelled walk-behind saw.
• Tool-Free Access When It Counts — A correctly spec'd thumb screw lets operators quickly open and resecure panels or guards in the field; a stripped or mismatched screw slows every access cycle on the job.
• Operator Safety Compliance — Guards and access panels on floor saws must be securely fastened during operation; using the correct OEM fastener ensures covers seat properly and stay in place under vibration.

A thumb screw is a hand-tightened fastener that allows tool-free removal and reinstallation of panels, guards, or covers — components that need to be accessed regularly for blade changes, belt inspections, or maintenance. On the BFS series floor saws, these fasteners hold protective covers securely in place during cutting operations while allowing quick field access between tasks. When a thumb screw is stripped, cross-threaded, or simply missing, covers can shift or come loose under the vibration generated by the saw, compromising both operator safety and the integrity of the guarded assembly.
