Gibraltar 5B60B941A8Z001G Lobed Knob 5-point Black

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 5B60B941A8Z001G is a 5-point lobed knob molded from thermoplastic elastomer for a firm, comfortable grip without tools. It features a 2.26-inch head diameter and a 3/8-16 threaded stem with 1 inch of thread engagement. The thermoplastic elastomer construction provides flexibility and resistance to oils and mild chemicals common in mechanical and industrial environments. This knob is installed by hand on threaded studs or bolts and is commonly used on equipment panels, enclosures, jigs, and fixtures where frequent manual adjustment is required.

This lobed knob is suited for light industrial, HVAC, electrical, and mechanical assembly applications where hand-tightened fastening or adjustment is needed. The 5-lobe profile distributes grip force evenly, reducing operator fatigue during repeated adjustments. Its black finish and compact profile make it appropriate for equipment panels, access covers, and control housings across residential and commercial service environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is hand-tightening only onto a 3/8-16 threaded stud or bolt. Verify thread engagement depth matches the 1-inch thread length before seating the knob fully. Do not use power tools or wrenches on this knob, as over-torquing can crack the hub or strip the threads. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation.
