Gibraltar GLH-545-G Type C Gear Lever Taper End

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GLH-545-G is a Type C gear lever with a taper end, designed for use in mechanical adjustment and positioning applications across industrial and trade environments. The lever features a stainless steel shaft measuring 0.31 inches in diameter and 1.38 inches in shaft length, paired with a phenolic knob that measures 0.78 inches in diameter and 1.18 inches in knob length. The M6x1.0 stem provides a standard threaded connection with a 0.35-inch thread length. The overall handle length is 2.56 inches. Maintenance technicians and machine operators install these levers on equipment requiring manual gear or position adjustment.

This gear lever is suited for use on machine tools, industrial equipment, and mechanical assemblies where a compact, hand-operated control is required. The taper end design accommodates typical mechanical positioning setups found in light manufacturing, maintenance, and equipment service environments. The stainless steel shaft provides corrosion resistance for installations in demanding or wet service areas, while the phenolic knob resists heat and chemical exposure common in shop environments.

Key Features

• Type C gear lever configuration with taper end for standard mechanical positioning applications
• Stainless steel shaft for corrosion resistance in demanding service environments
• Phenolic knob resists heat and chemical exposure
• M6x1.0 threaded stem for secure, standard-pitch installation

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or new installation component for mechanical equipment requiring a Type C gear lever with an M6x1.0 stem thread and taper end configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by maintenance technicians or mechanical assemblers familiar with threaded fastener hardware. Ensure the mating bore and thread are clean and free of debris before threading the M6x1.0 stem into the host equipment. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment before servicing lever assemblies per applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Do not overtighten the stem into the threaded bore, as phenolic and plastic knob components may crack under excessive torque.
