The lobed profile provides positive grip across all five points, allowing controlled torque without a wrench. The knob measures 1.52 inches in head diameter with an overall height of 1.09 inches and accepts a 5\/16-18 threaded stem with 1 inch of thread engagement. TPE construction resists oils, moderate chemicals, and repeated handling without cracking or deforming. The black finish is standard. Weighing just 0.09 pounds, this knob is a direct hand-adjustment component suited for panels, access covers, and equipment enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis knob is used wherever a tool-free, hand-tightened fastener is needed on threaded studs or bolted assemblies. Common applications include HVAC equipment access panels, control enclosures, fan shroud assemblies, and general mechanical equipment requiring frequent operator adjustment or removal. The 5\/16-18 thread size is a widely used standard fastener size across residential and light commercial equipment. Technicians in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades install this type of knob as a replacement or upgrade over standard hex hardware in service-access locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5-point lobed profile for secure hand grip and controlled tightening torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermoplastic elastomer (TPE) construction resists oils, chemicals, and repeated use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.52 inch head diameter with 0.69 inch hub diameter for stable seating on panel surfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16-18 threaded stem with 1 inch thread length for broad fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall height of 1.09 inches with a low-profile 0.18 inch hub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.09 pounds — suitable for panels and enclosures where mass matters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a tool-free hand-adjustment knob for use on any threaded 5\/16-18 stud or bolt in panel, enclosure, or mechanical equipment assemblies requiring frequent access.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eA licensed or qualified technician should power down or de-energize any equipment before removing or replacing panel fasteners. No special tools are required for installation — thread the knob onto the 5\/16-18 stud by hand and tighten to a firm, snug fit. Do not use a wrench or impact driver on this knob, as TPE lobes are designed for hand torque only and can deform under excessive mechanical force. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines for panel and enclosure reassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lobed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnob Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.52 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHub Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.69 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHub Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.09 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStem Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.09 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31162801\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 5B40B931A8Z001G\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51720843460914,"sku":"5B40B931A8Z001G","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/48753a5e937d3366310c60397770b112.jpg?v=1788569835","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-5b40b931a8z001g-lobed-knob-5-point-black","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
