Gibraltar BH308-G Speed Handle 2 Offset Arms Zinc Plated

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR BH308-G is a 2-arm offset speed handle designed for use with tapped 3/4-10 inch threaded holes. Constructed from cast iron with a zinc-plated finish, this speed handle provides a firm, balanced grip for manual tightening and loosening of threaded fasteners on machinery, fixtures, and industrial equipment. The offset arm configuration delivers ergonomic leverage across a wide arm spread of 8 inches, while the 1 inch ball diameter at each arm tip allows smooth rotation in the hand. At 1 pound, it is a compact and durable tool-room or machine-shop staple used by maintenance technicians and trades professionals.

The BH308-G is suited for general industrial and mechanical maintenance applications where manual clamping, fixturing, or machine adjustment is required. The tapped 3/4-10 hole threads directly onto standard 3/4-10 UNC fasteners or fixture studs without additional hardware. The zinc-plated cast iron construction resists corrosion in light-duty shop and industrial environments. It is a common choice for jigs, fixtures, vises, drill press tables, and similar shop equipment requiring frequent manual adjustment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the BH308-G threads by hand onto any 3/4-10 UNC stud or bolt. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation to avoid cross-threading the cast iron hub. Always de-energize or lock out machinery before servicing or adjusting fixtures that use this handle. Do not use impact tools to drive the handle onto the stud.
