Review on Cablecc Screws Length Stainless Computer by Alex Jones

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too short and thin to hand tighten

I bought these thumbscrews to use with DB25 cables for music equipment. They are shorter and thinner than the standard sized screws you see on DB25 connectors. The threads are correct so it works, however it can't be hand tightened as it doesn't protrude beyond the plastic sides of the DB25 connector and you can't squeeze it enough to loosen or tighten. I ended up using a small screwdriver (because the ends are slotted) and I was able to tighten them up, but don't expect them to be a similar replacement for the types of screws you typically see on DB25 connectors.

Pros
  • Computer components
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
