Elesa+Ganter 108831 BT.40-SST-P-M10X35-SV40 Fluted Clamping Knob
The Elesa+Ganter 108831 fluted clamping knob is a manually operated locking solution created for technical assemblies where grip, surface protection and corrosion resistance all play an important role. The code BT.40-SST-P-M10X35-SV40 refers to a 40 mm fluted knob with an M10x35 AISI 303 stainless steel threaded stud and an SV40 locking thrust pad. This combination is well suited to industrial systems that require repeatable adjustment without sacrificing component care.
What Makes the 108831 Different?
The key distinction of this version is the SV40 thrust pad. Compared with smaller pad variants in the same family, this configuration provides a broader contact-related design solution for applications where contact management is especially relevant. The thrust pad reduces direct stud-to-surface pressure, which can be useful when working with sensitive, finished or precisely machined parts.
Core Technical Features
The knob body is made from black matte PA technopolymer, delivering a professional appearance and dependable manual grip. The threaded stud is stainless steel, supporting use in environments where resistance to corrosion is an operational advantage. With a 35 mm stud length, the 108831 is often selected for compact setups that still need M10 fastening strength and a more protective contact interface.
Typical Uses in Industry
The Elesa+Ganter 108831 BT.40-SST-P-M10X35-SV40 fluted clamping knob can be used on machine frames, covers, support brackets, adjustment points, protective panels and technical access components. It is especially practical in work areas where operators frequently reposition or secure parts by hand. The fluted knob shape supports easy manual operation, helping reduce downtime during setup changes and routine adjustments.
Why Engineers Specify This Variant
Selection often comes down to more than just thread size. Engineers may choose this exact variant because the 35 mm stud suits a compact assembly while the SV40 pad offers a better functional fit for the surface or locking geometry involved. That makes the 108831 a specification-driven component rather than a generic knob replacement.

Elesa+Ganter 108831 FAQ
What does the SV40 designation mean on the Elesa+Ganter 108831?
SV40 identifies the locking thrust pad size used on this version. It helps define how the knob interfaces with the clamped surface and is one of the most important differentiators within the product family.
Why choose the 35 mm stud version?
The 35 mm stud is often preferred when installation space is limited or when the assembly does not require the extra reach of a longer threaded stem.
Is this product suitable for repeated manual adjustment?
Yes. It is intended for hand-operated locking and unlocking tasks, making it a practical choice in applications where users need fast, repeatable adjustment throughout normal operation.
Can the 108831 support cleaner or more moisture-prone working environments?
Yes. The stainless steel stud makes it more suitable for applications where corrosion resistance matters, including many technical and industrial settings.
