Gibraltar GLH-531-G Type C Gear Lever Taper End

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GLH-531-G is a Type C gear lever with a taper end, designed for use in mechanical assemblies requiring a secure, ergonomic hand-operated control. The lever features a stainless steel shaft with a 0.25 inch diameter and 1.97 inch shaft length, paired with a phenolic knob measuring 0.78 inch in diameter and 1.18 inch in length. The 1/4-20 threaded stem provides a standard connection with 0.35 inch of thread engagement. The overall handle length is 3.15 inches. Licensed technicians and mechanical assembly professionals install this type of lever in equipment requiring manual gear or position adjustment.

This gear lever is suited for industrial and mechanical equipment applications where a reliable hand-operated control lever is required. The taper end design allows for positive engagement in gear or positional indexing mechanisms. The phenolic knob provides a firm grip surface while resisting heat and common shop chemicals. The stainless steel shaft offers corrosion resistance for use in light-duty wet or wash-down environments.
