Knobs, Handles and Hand Wheels

Tapered knobs are commonly found on machine tools, jigs, fixtures, and control levers, sometimes preferred due to the shape of the apparatus or end products.

Tapered knobs come in female and male threaded insert as well as press-on applications. We carry knobs by DimcoGray, Kipp, and Rogan so you can always find exactly the product you're looking for.

Thumb screw knobs can be press-fit onto screws to create a small knob for clamping or securing quickly and easily with just the thumb and forefinger.

The wide variety of thumb screw knobs we supply can be used with any length screw and come in a variety of knurling patterns or wing-tip designs. They are ideal for applications where space is restricted and fastening with a tool is not possible.

We carry thumb screws in a variety of styles, including:

• Knurled
• Lobed
• Wing
• L-Knob
  

The versatility of thumb screw knobs extends to overlapping styles, including knurled lobed and many others. Browse our online catalog to see every style, size, and application type of thumb screw knob available with the quickest lead times.

Ergonomic Toggle Clamp Handle Grips provide a safe and comfortable gripping surface for vertical hold down clamps. These accessory parts act a guard and help protect against potential pinch points.

Tube and flat end grips provide an ergonomic fit to everyday tools and equipment by reducing hand fatigue and the transfer of vibrations. Our assortment of plastic and foam grips are flexible enough to stretch onto slightly larger dimensions without shredding or tearing, yet durable enough to withstand the duress of demanding industrial applications.

Wing knobs are designed to give good leverage with minimal grip strength, making them ideal for applications that require frequent tightening and loosening, or in more precision applications.

These knobs do not require tools and can be easily adjusted using only a thumb and forefinger, similar to thumb screw knobs, but with an added arm.

We carry wing knobs in a wide variety of thread sizes from 1-inch wing knobs to 3-inch wing knobs, ensuring you'll find exactly what you need by the manufacturer you trust.
