Elesa+Ganter B.193/25-SST-P-M6X16 Knurled Grip Knob
The Elesa+Ganter B.193/25-SST-P-M6X16 knurled grip knob is a medium-size hand tightening element designed for industrial equipment that needs compact manual clamping with a corrosion-aware stud material. This version belongs to the B.193-SST-p execution and combines a black glossy PF Duroplast knob with an AISI 303 stainless steel threaded stud. The dimensional specification includes a 26 mm knob diameter, M6 thread, 18 mm body height, 19 mm d1, 16 mm stud length, and 6 mm l2.
Why This Configuration Is Widely Practical
This model sits in a very useful middle position within the B.193 family. The 26 mm diameter gives better finger contact than smaller knobs, while the M6x16 stud keeps the overall installation relatively compact. For many machine builders, that makes it a smart choice for side panels, locking points, operator adjustments, alignment brackets, and protective covers.
The PF Duroplast body brings the rigid, hard-surface character expected from phenolic based industrial knobs. It is well suited to workshop and production settings where grease, oils, and routine handling are common. The stainless stud adds durability in environments where the fastening point may be exposed to humidity or regular washdown splashes outside full immersion conditions.
Elesa+Ganter B.193/25-SST-P-M6X16 Handling and Ergonomics
The outer knurled profile is designed to improve grip without increasing bulk unnecessarily. In practical use, the Elesa+Ganter B.193/25-SST-P-M6X16 knurled grip knob offers a controlled hand feel that supports repeatable tightening for setup and service operations. Because the stud is only 16 mm long, it is particularly useful where rear clearance is limited or where the threaded engagement depth is intentionally short.
This compact reach can also reduce interference with nearby machine parts, internal cable runs, or hidden structural members. As a result, it is often preferred in tightly packaged equipment where every millimeter of protrusion matters.
Application Fit
Typical use cases include industrial enclosures, machine guards, modular assembly jigs, inspection devices, and service panels. It works well in applications that require reliable hand tightening without a tool-dependent workflow.

Elesa+Ganter B.193/25-SST-P-M6X16 FAQ
When is the M6x16 stud length the best option?
This version is ideal when the mounting thickness is moderate and the design does not need a long threaded projection. It is especially useful in compact housings and space-restricted assemblies.
Does the 26 mm diameter change usability significantly?
Yes. The larger diameter typically improves comfort and grip, especially for operators who adjust the knob repeatedly during setup, maintenance, or product changeover.
Why not use a zinc-plated stud version instead?
A zinc-plated stud may be sufficient in some dry environments, but a stainless steel stud generally offers better long-term corrosion resistance and can provide more stable performance in humid or cleaning-prone applications.
Is this knob appropriate for repeated adjustment?
Yes. It is intended for manual operation and is well suited to points that are regularly tightened and loosened as part of routine service or machine setup.
What kind of machinery benefits most from this part?
Packaging equipment, light automation systems, access covers, test fixtures, and guarding systems often benefit from this style because it combines a secure hand grip, clean design, and practical installation dimensions.
