Gibraltar B5-37-G Fixed Handwheel Machine Handle

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR B5-37-G is a fixed handwheel machine handle designed for use with threaded stem mounting in industrial and light machine tool applications. The handle features a bulb-shaped grip with a chrome-plated finish over a carbon steel construction. The stem is 11/16 inches long with a 3/8-16 thread, the handle measures 3-3/16 inches in length, and the overall assembly length is 3-7/8 inches. The handle diameter is 1 inch. This type of hardware is installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and equipment assemblers working on manual positioning controls, machine guards, fixtures, and similar equipment.

The B5-37-G is suited for manual control applications on machine tools, jigs, fixtures, and production equipment where a secure, ergonomic handwheel grip is needed. The 3/8-16 threaded stem interface is a common standard thread found on a wide range of machine bases, fence assemblies, and clamping mechanisms in both light manufacturing and maintenance environments.

Key Features

• Bulb-shaped grip for comfortable manual operation and positive hand control
• Chrome-plated finish provides corrosion resistance and a clean appearance
• Carbon steel construction for handle and stem delivers durability under repeated use
• 3/8-16 threaded stem for direct engagement with standard threaded bores

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for machine handles with a 3/8-16 threaded stem interface on industrial fixtures, machine tools, and similar equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the stem directly into the receiving bore by hand or with appropriate tooling. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the threaded bore or the stem. Follow any applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines for handle torque and positioning.
