Gibraltar 5B60F206A8Z001G Lobed Knob 5-point 5/16-18

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 5B60F206A8Z001G is a 5-point lobed knob molded from thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), designed for hand-tightening and manual adjustment applications in trade and industrial equipment. The lobed profile provides positive grip without tools, making it well suited for panel covers, access doors, machinery guards, and adjustment mechanisms that require frequent loosening and retightening. The knob features a 2.26-inch head diameter and a 5/16-18 threaded stem hole, with an overall height of 1.09 inches. TPE construction offers flexibility, chemical resistance, and a firm grip surface even in oily or damp conditions.

This lobed knob is appropriate for light-duty mechanical assemblies across HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing access covers, and general industrial hardware where a tool-free fastening point is needed. It suits both original equipment assembly and field replacement on adjustable components. The black finish blends with standard equipment cabinetry. Package quantity is one knob per unit, with no minimum order quantity above one.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — thread the knob onto a 5/16-18 stud or machine screw by hand. Before replacing a knob on powered equipment, de-energize the unit and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures. Do not use impact tools or wrenches on this knob, as TPE is not rated for driven mechanical torque. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient to hold the intended panel or cover securely before returning the equipment to service.
