Gibraltar G10-0155-E Ball Knob Female Insert 2 Inch

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR G10-0155-E is a phenolic ball knob with a female insert mount, designed for use as a hand-operated control knob on machinery, fixtures, jigs, and industrial equipment. The knob measures 2.0 inches in diameter and 1-13/16 inches in height, with a smooth grip surface and a black finish. The female insert accepts a 5/8-18 threaded stem, with a hole depth of 3/4 inch. Phenolic construction provides solid resistance to heat and common shop chemicals, making it a dependable choice for light industrial and mechanical assembly applications.

This ball knob is suited for use in manufacturing, machine tool, and maintenance applications where a reliable hand-tightened fastening point is needed. It is commonly installed on levers, clamps, jigs, fixtures, and shop equipment where operators need a secure, comfortable grip without tools. The smooth-surface, round profile works well in confined spaces and high-cycle-use scenarios.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the knob directly onto a 5/8-18 male-threaded shaft or fastener. Ensure the mating thread is clean and undamaged before installation. Hand-tighten only — avoid using tools that could crack the phenolic body. Verify hole depth and thread engagement are sufficient for the application before putting the assembly into service.
