The knob features a 1.87-inch head diameter and is molded from thermoplastic elastomer, which provides a firm yet slightly compliant grip surface. The female insert accepts a 5\/16-18 threaded fastener or stud. This type of knob is commonly installed by machine builders, maintenance technicians, and equipment assemblers who need a tool-free adjustment or clamping point in their builds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fluted knob is suited for light industrial, HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and general mechanical assemblies where hand-adjustable fastening is required. The thermoplastic elastomer construction holds up to repeated handling in shop and field environments. The 5\/16-18 female thread makes it compatible with standard fractional threaded studs and bolts found in a wide range of domestic equipment builds and panel assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.87-inch head diameter provides adequate grip surface for hand tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThermoplastic elastomer material offers flexibility and durability under repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFemale insert with 5\/16-18 thread fits standard fractional threaded studs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFluted knob profile improves grip in gloved or oily hand conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.16 pounds per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard replacement or new-installation fluted knob for mechanical assemblies and equipment panels using 5\/16-18 threaded studs or fasteners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires no special tools — the knob threads directly onto a 5\/16-18 stud or bolt by hand. Ensure the mating stud is clean and free of debris before threading the insert. Do not use a wrench or power tool to drive this knob, as over-torquing can damage the thermoplastic elastomer body or strip the female insert. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient for the application before placing the assembly back in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.87 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermoplastic Elastomer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size (Female Insert)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.16 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1RM8A206A8Z002G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696270737714,"sku":"1RM8A206A8Z002G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/ce8e5bafa5bd0ef3adbba640bd0f992a.jpg?v=1788340838","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-1rm8a206a8z002g-fluted-knob-female-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
