Plastic Star Knobs

Plastic Star Knobs are uniquely designed to provide a comfortable and secure grip for high-torque applications. The smooth lines and rounded edges make our Plastic Star Knob a popular choice for consumer product applications, such as lawnmower handle bars, office furniture, and medical equipment where a comfortable grip is paramount. With Star Knob diameters that range from 1 3/8” to 2 1/2”, we have a knob that is perfect for any application. These five prong knobs are available in male, female thru, female blind, and female locking versions with either inch or metric threads. Custom inserts, custom hubs, and RoHS compliant parts are available upon request. Our plastic knobs are molded using Polypropylene, nylon, or ABS, which makes them up to twice as impact resistant as similar phenolic knobs. When you need a knob that conveys the ultimate image of luxury and quality, consider our Soft Touch Star Knob with an over-molded layer of supple rubber for a sure, comfortable grip. Decorate your knob with a pad printed or hot stamped logo or design for a truly unique look. If you need knobs in a variety of different stud lengths, nuts sizes, or insert materials, check out our Snap Lock Star Knobs that allow users to assemble their own knob with the bolt or nut of their choice.
