Zebra P1029257-017 Knurled Media Guide Nut M2.5
Overview
The P1029257-017 is an M2.5 knurled media guide nut — a fastener component designed to secure and tension media in Zebra TTP21X0 series thermal printers. During routine maintenance or repair, this nut maintains proper media alignment and prevents drift during high-volume print runs. It is a direct replacement part intended for warehouse logistics, cross-dock, and shipping environments where thermal label printing is mission-critical and media slippage means reprints and downtime.
Compatibility
The P1029257-017 is engineered for the Zebra TTP21X0 thermal print family. If you are servicing a TTP2100, TTP2110, TTP2130, or TTP2140 unit, this fastener is the correct specification. Confirm your printer model before ordering — M2.5 knurled nuts are not interchangeable across different print architectures.
Installation Notes
This is a mechanical fastener — no special tools beyond a standard M2.5 wrench or socket are required. Knurled design allows hand-tightening when access is tight; do not over-torque, as media guide assemblies are precision-aligned. If media guide was damaged or misaligned, inspect the mating surfaces before installation. Replace as part of routine preventive maintenance during media roller or thermal head service.
