Gibraltar KNH4-HEXT5----- Wing Knob M6 2 Inch Polypropylene

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR KNH4-HEXT5----- is a thru hex hole bar and wing knob designed for M6 threaded fastening applications. Molded from polypropylene, this knob delivers a lightweight, corrosion-resistant grip point for hand-tightening or loosening threaded hardware without tools. It features a matte black finish and a through-hole hex bar design that allows a shaft or bolt to pass completely through the hub. With a 2-inch head length, a 0.75-inch hub diameter, and a hub height of 0.49 inches, it suits compact panel, fixture, and equipment-adjustment assemblies. Technicians and assemblers in HVAC, electrical, and general equipment service applications install these as accessible control or adjustment knobs on threaded rod or machine bolt installations.

This wing knob is suited for light-duty hand-adjustment assemblies where tool-free operation is required. The thru hex hole configuration accommodates a hex shaft or allows a bolt to pass fully through, making it practical for clamping, positioning, or locking mechanisms on equipment panels, enclosures, and fixtures. The polypropylene construction holds up in environments where metal fasteners may corrode. It is appropriate for both residential and light commercial equipment maintenance and assembly tasks requiring repeatable hand-tightened connections.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service knob for equipment assemblies using M6 metric threaded fasteners with thru hex hole knob configurations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by equipment assemblers, HVAC technicians, or electricians during panel assembly or field service. Power down or de-energize any equipment before replacing or adjusting fastening hardware on live enclosures. Ensure the mating thread or shaft is clean and free of debris before seating the knob. Hand-tighten only — do not use power tools, as polypropylene threads can strip under excessive torque.
