Nail's cousin (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

screw

'nail's cousin' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for screw that I've seen before include "The Turn of the ___ , 1898 Henry James horror story" , "Cheat" , "fast turn" , "Prison warder (sl)" , "something with thread" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
