Gibraltar GLH-532-G Type C Gear Lever Taper End

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GLH-532-G is a Type C gear lever with a taper end, designed for use in mechanical adjustment and clamping applications across industrial and trade equipment. The lever features a stainless steel shaft measuring 0.25 inches in diameter and 2.56 inches in length, paired with a phenolic knob 0.78 inches in diameter and 1.18 inches in length. The threaded stem uses a 1/4-20 thread pattern with 0.35 inches of thread engagement, and the overall handle length is 3.74 inches. The stainless steel shaft provides corrosion resistance, while the phenolic knob offers a firm, chemical-resistant grip surface. This lever is typically installed by machinists, maintenance technicians, and equipment assemblers.

The GLH-532-G suits applications requiring a compact, hand-operated lever for locking, positioning, or adjusting machine components. Typical install scenarios include jigs, fixtures, machine tool accessories, and industrial equipment panels where manual adjustment is needed without tools. The 1/4-20 threaded stem provides compatibility with standard threaded inserts and mounting blocks commonly found in production and maintenance environments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with basic hand tools. Ensure the mating threaded receiver is clean and free of debris before threading in the stem. Do not overtighten, as phenolic knobs can crack under excessive torque. Verify thread engagement depth is sufficient for the load requirements of the application before placing the equipment back into service.
