Gibraltar 5B60F205A8Z001G Lobed Knob 5-point Black

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 5B60F205A8Z001G is a 5-point lobed knob constructed from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and finished in black. It features a 2.26-inch head diameter with a 1/4-20 threaded stem size, making it suitable for hand-tightening applications where tools are not practical. The lobed profile distributes finger pressure evenly across all five points, allowing consistent torque without a wrench. With a hub diameter of 1.25 inches and an overall height of 1.09 inches, the knob has a low-profile form factor that fits into tight panel or enclosure layouts. Technicians working on control panels, HVAC equipment covers, electrical enclosures, and similar assemblies use this type of knob for tool-free access and adjustment.

This lobed knob is appropriate for light industrial and commercial applications where frequent removal and reinstallation are required. It installs directly onto 1/4-20 threaded fasteners or studs found on equipment access panels, junction boxes, control cabinets, and service covers. The TPE material provides a firm, slip-resistant grip in both wet and dry conditions, which is useful in mechanical rooms, rooftop units, and outdoor enclosures. It is sold as a single-piece unit.

Key Features

• 5-point lobed profile for ergonomic hand-tightening without tools
• 2.26-inch head diameter for easy grip and positive control
• 1/4-20 threaded stem size for direct installation on standard fasteners
• Thermoplastic elastomer construction provides durable, slip-resistant grip
• Low-profile hub height of 0.16 inches suits flush-mount panel applications
• Black finish for standard industrial and enclosure applications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or new-installation knob for any application using 1/4-20 threaded studs or screws, including equipment access panels, control enclosures, and service covers in HVAC, electrical, and light industrial settings.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools beyond hand pressure in most applications. Verify that the mating stud or fastener is 1/4-20 thread before installation. Ensure the equipment is de-energized or depressurized before removing or replacing access panel hardware. Do not overtighten, as TPE knobs are designed for hand torque only.
