Gibraltar GLH-552-G Gear Lever M10x1.5 Stainless Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GLH-552-G is a Type C gear lever with a taper end, designed for use in mechanical positioning and clamping applications. It features a stainless steel shaft with an M10x1.5 threaded stem, a 0.47-inch shaft diameter, and a phenolic knob measuring 1.18 inches in diameter. The 5.75-inch handle length provides comfortable leverage for manual adjustment tasks. This hardware component is typically installed by mechanical and industrial maintenance technicians in equipment requiring hand-operated lever control.

This gear lever is suited for use in light industrial and machine shop environments where corrosion resistance and hand-adjustable control are required. The stainless steel shaft resists moisture and mild chemical exposure, while the phenolic knob provides a durable, heat-resistant grip surface. Common applications include manual indexing fixtures, jigs, machine guards, and mechanical stops where threaded stem engagement is needed.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit component for mechanical assemblies requiring an M10x1.5 threaded gear lever with a taper-end Type C configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by mechanical technicians or maintenance personnel using standard hand tools. Ensure the mating threaded bore is clean and free of debris before threading the M10x1.5 stem into place. Do not overtighten by wrench or impact tool, as the phenolic knob and threaded stem are designed for hand-torque operation. Verify equipment is de-energized and mechanically locked out before servicing any assembly that incorporates this lever.
