Gibraltar G10-3096-N Thermoplastic Wing Knob 1/4-20

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR G10-3096-N is a thermoplastic wing knob with a threaded stem bar, designed for manual fastening applications in light industrial, HVAC panel assembly, enclosure mounting, and general equipment maintenance. The knob features a 1-1/4 inch head length and a 1/4-20 threaded stem with a 1/2 inch thread length, allowing secure hand-tightening without tools. The hub diameter measures 1/2 inch. Molded in black thermoplastic, this knob offers corrosion resistance and a firm grip surface. It is suitable for repeated adjustment tasks where tool-free access is required.

This wing knob is commonly used in equipment panels, access doors, duct assemblies, filter frames, and light mechanical enclosures where hand-tightened fastening is preferred. The 1/4-20 thread size is one of the most widely used unified coarse thread standards, making this knob a practical fit for a broad range of maintenance and assembly applications in commercial and residential settings. Technicians in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical trades routinely use wing knobs like this for serviceable panels and covers that require frequent removal.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — the wing knob is hand-tightened onto any compatible 1/4-20 threaded stud or bolt. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation. Do not use power tools or wrenches on this knob, as the thermoplastic body is not rated for mechanical torque application. This fastener is intended for light-duty, tool-free service access points only.
