Gibraltar G10-3086-A Female Insert Wing Knob 10-32

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR G10-3086-A is a female insert bar and wing knob designed for tool-free hand adjustment in mechanical assemblies, fixtures, and equipment panels. Built from thermoplastic, it offers lightweight durability and corrosion resistance in environments where metal hardware is not required. The knob accepts a 10-32 threaded insert with a hole depth of 3/8 inches, and the head measures 1-1/4 inches in length. The hub diameter is 5/8 inches, and the black finish provides a clean, uniform appearance. HVAC, electrical, and mechanical technicians use this style of knob wherever fast, repeated access to an adjustment point or panel fastener is needed without tools.

This wing knob is suited for use in residential and light commercial equipment enclosures, control panels, junction boxes, and mechanical assemblies that require frequent manual adjustment or removal. It is a standard fastener component used by HVAC technicians, electricians, and equipment fabricators when assembling or servicing equipment that benefits from hand-operable hardware. Its female insert design accepts a threaded stud already installed in the mating component, making it compatible with a wide range of standard 10-32 threaded stud applications.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the knob threads onto an existing 10-32 stud by hand. Before installing or removing this knob in a powered enclosure or panel, de-energize the equipment per applicable NEC guidelines. Do not overtighten by hand; the thermoplastic body is not rated for wrench torque. Verify stud protrusion does not exceed the 3/8 inch hole depth to ensure full thread engagement.
