Gibraltar 1RM8A207A8Z002G Fluted Knob Female Insert

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 1RM8A207A8Z002G is a fluted knob with a female insert, designed for hand-tightening applications where a secure, tool-free grip is needed. The knob features a 1.87-inch head diameter and is molded from thermoplastic elastomer, which provides a firm but comfortable grip surface. The female insert accepts a 3/8-16 threaded fastener. This type of knob is commonly installed by machine technicians, maintenance mechanics, and equipment assemblers working on panels, fixtures, enclosures, and adjustable assemblies.

This fluted knob is suited for use in light industrial, commercial, and workshop environments where frequent manual adjustments are required. The 3/8-16 thread size is a standard coarse-thread imperial size, making this knob compatible with a wide range of threaded rods, studs, and machine bolts used in panel assembly and equipment mounting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools. Thread the female insert onto the compatible 3/8-16 stud or rod and hand-tighten to the desired position. Ensure the mating fastener thread pitch and diameter match 3/8-16 coarse before installation. Do not use power tools or wrenches on the knob body, as over-torquing can damage the thermoplastic elastomer housing.
