Gibraltar BH200-G Speed Handle 2 Offset Arms Zinc Plated

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR BH200-G is a two-arm offset speed handle designed for use with machine tools, fixtures, jigs, and industrial clamping applications. Built from cast iron and finished with a zinc plating for corrosion resistance, this handle provides a solid, ergonomic grip for manual adjustment of spindles, clamps, and feed mechanisms. The blank hole hub accepts custom drilling or broaching to match a specific shaft or fastener size. Key dimensional specs include a 2.5-inch overall height, a 1.375-inch hub diameter, and a 0.875-inch ball diameter.

This speed handle suits machine shop, tooling, and maintenance environments where frequent manual adjustments are required. The offset arm configuration allows clearance around obstructions while maintaining comfortable grip force. With a 6-inch arm spread and 0.563-inch arm diameter, the BH200-G delivers adequate leverage for most manual clamping and positioning tasks. It is typically installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, or tooling engineers on drill presses, milling fixtures, and similar equipment.

Key Features

• Two offset arms provide clearance and balanced grip in tight or obstructed mounting positions
• Cast iron construction offers durability under repeated manual torque loads
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in shop environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade speed handle for manual machine tool fixtures, jigs, and clamping assemblies requiring a two-arm offset configuration with a blank hub bore.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or maintenance technician. The blank hub must be drilled and broached or bored to the required shaft or fastener diameter before mounting. Ensure all machine power is off and all stored energy is released before removing or installing handles on any powered equipment. Verify the hub bore and arm spread are appropriate for the intended fixture before finalizing installation.
