What a lot of knobs!
Would you look at that! WDS Components have recently launched a large range of star and mushroom knobs to the already extensive range of hand grips. There are more than 300 hand knobs and thumb screws to choose from including aluminium and stainless steel varieties.
Star and hand knobs provide a firm grip to achieve strong torque whilst being comfortable to use. They're great for easily controlling a variety of elements across equipment such as brewing tanks in distilleries or even as handles in conveyor systems. Mushroom knobs, also known as push/pull knobs, are used in applications where a push or pull movement is required. These hand grips are most popular within the machining industry. They're predominantly used as operating elements for appliances, sliding covers, doors, cupboards, drawers and other similar push pull applications. If you check out our full range of mushroom knobs, you'll find red thermoplastic ones too- they're great emergency stop buttons so there really are plenty of uses for these hand-y standard parts.
WDS Components are offering a range of shapes and sizes to match applications- over 300 in fact, the Engineers will be very happy! When exploring the range, you'll notice some hand knobs are tapped with through holes for fixings making it even easier to install the parts. Check out our range of studs and nuts to securely fasten your hand knobs into place.
The stainless steel variety is perfect for sterilised environments where hygiene is an essential. This might include kitchens and distilleries within the food and beverage industry or hospital environments and surgery rooms.
