Gibraltar SKS-024-G Knurled Knob Threaded Stem

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR SKS-024-G is a knurled knob with a threaded stem, designed for use in mechanical and industrial applications where hand-adjustable fastening is required. The knob features a 2-inch head diameter and a 3/8-16 threaded stem, providing a secure, tool-free grip for repeated adjustment and positioning tasks. Constructed from steel, this part offers durability in demanding environments. It is well suited for HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and other trade installations where frequent manual access is needed.

This knurled knob is commonly used in residential and light commercial applications where hand-tightened fasteners are specified. Typical installations include equipment access panels, machine guards, junction box covers, and control enclosures. The 3/8-16 thread size is a standard coarse-thread specification, making this knob compatible with a wide range of threaded hardware and standard fastener stock found across HVAC, electrical, and mechanical trades.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, electricians, or mechanical contractors during equipment panel assembly or service. Power down and de-energize any associated equipment before accessing panels or enclosures. Thread the knob onto the mating stud or threaded insert by hand, ensuring full thread engagement without cross-threading. Do not use power tools to drive this knob, as over-torquing can damage the knurled head or threaded insert.
