Elsa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 Wing Knob Guide

The Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 wing knob is designed for manual fastening tasks where users need a comfortable hand grip, a reliable M6 thread, and a longer 20 mm stud for deeper or more layered assemblies. As part of the CT-FG-SST-p series, it combines a reinforced technopolymer knob body with a stainless steel threaded stud, creating a practical solution for machinery, equipment housings, and adjustable industrial components.

Why the M6x20 Version Stands Out

Among 30 mm wing knob options, the Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 wing knob offers additional stud length that can be useful when fastening through thicker materials, spacers, layered covers, or bracket assemblies. In product design and maintenance work, that extra reach can remove the need for alternative hardware while keeping the same operator-friendly knob format. This helps maintain consistency across machine platforms and simplifies replacement planning.

Built for Manual Clamping Efficiency

The wing shape is intended to support direct hand operation, making the part suitable for tasks that involve frequent opening, closing, repositioning, or locking. The flange improves the user’s grip and gives the knob a stable feel during tightening. The elongated hub also increases clearance from the fixing surface, which can make turning easier when adjacent parts are close to the fastening point.

The material combination is equally important. The glass-fibre reinforced polyamide body supports robust everyday use, while the stainless steel stud makes the knob relevant for installations where corrosion resistance is a design requirement. This is one reason the model can be considered for both conventional industrial equipment and environments with regular washdown or cleaning routines.

Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 Application Examples

The Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 wing knob can be used in machine guarding, inspection covers, service hatches, support structures, positioning elements, measuring devices, and operator-accessible adjustment points. It is especially valuable where tool-free access improves workflow and reduces downtime during setup or maintenance.

Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 FAQ

What is the main use case for the Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 wing knob?

It is mainly used where a manually operated clamping point needs an M6 thread and a longer 20 mm stud for deeper fastening or thicker assemblies.

Elesa+Ganter CT-FG.30-SST-P-M6X20 Why would someone choose M6x20 instead of M6x16?

The longer stud can provide better reach or more thread engagement in designs with thicker panels, added spacers, or deeper threaded mounting points.

Is this wing knob suitable for maintenance access points?

Yes, very much so. Wing knobs are commonly selected for covers and access points because they allow quick removal and refastening by hand.

Does stainless steel change where this part can be used?

Yes. A stainless steel stud broadens suitability for environments where corrosion resistance, cleaning exposure, or material durability are important considerations.

What benefit does the 30 mm diameter provide?

The 30 mm diameter generally gives a more comfortable grip than smaller formats, which can improve handling during repeated tightening and loosening cycles.
