Product Description
GN798.7 Plastic Retractable Safety Handle with Steel Automatic Return Mechanism
Retractable handles can only be operated when manually held in position and will automatically return to the retracted position when released. They are suitable for applications such as cranked handles and handwheels where the handle may not be locked in the operating position. In order to bring the handle into the operating position it has to be turned first through 90° to stop against a torsion spring, and then it is pushed against spring pressure into its hold position. By maintaining the forward thrust on the handle, the handwheel can easily be rotated. When releasing the handle, the springs return it back to the retracted position.
The GN 798.7 retractable handle features a stepped shape consisting of two cylinders allowing an easy grip for the operator.
The handle comes in a matt black Plastic finish and a retractable Steel mechanism.
