A fin screw is a small spiral ramp used singly or in pairs to secure a fin into the aft underside of a windsurfing board. Fin screws can be fabricated from any material of sufficient strength, the most common materials being brass or stainless steel, to deter corrosion. Some are machined or molded of nylon so the fin screw, rather than the more expensive fin, breaks upon impact with a foreign object, such as a submerged log or, like, you know, the EARTH. Some fin screw assemblies combine both materials, using brass for the screw and tear-away nylon as the nut securing the screw, again to sacrifice the cheap nut in event of an impact.
Hey, at least my post is relevant. What's the purpose in yours? (No one ... OK, few ... here is/are stupid enough to click on an unknown URL which exists for one of two purposes: to put advertising revenue in your pocket or to spread malware.) So which are you ... the sacrificial nut or the total screw job?

Heck yeh it's useful for you, you are part of the problem.
And I got some comic entertainment from Mike's cheeky response,
so a win for both of us.
