When most people think of handles, they envision traditional bar-style handles with a long and horizontal gripping surface. Handles, however, are available in many other styles Among the simplest styles is finger. They offer a quick and easy way to open access panels, machinery doors and other surfaces. What are finger handles exactly, and how do they differ from traditional handles?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Introduction to Finger Handles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Finger handles are small, easy-to-use handles designed to be operated with just a few fingers. As shown in the adjacent photo, they are typically shaped like a short rod. You can use them by grabbing the handle surface with a few fingers, such as your index finger and thumb, and then pulling or pushing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finger Handle Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You can find finger handles in different materials. Common materials in which they are made include plastic, stainless steel, carbon steel and zinc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plastic finger handles are lightweight and offer a superior level of resistance to corrosion. Stainless steel finger handles are strong, durable and rust-resistant. Carbon steel finger handles have a higher concentration of carbon, which makes them stronger than stainless steel finger handles. Zinc finger handles are durable, low-maintenance and offer excellent resistant to oxidative stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits of Finger Handles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With their small and simple design, finger handles can conserve space. They don’t stick out or protrude from surfaces as much as other styles of handles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finger handles are also ergonomic. They aren’t awkward or uncomfortable to grip. On the contrary, finger handles are quite comfortable. You can grab them with just a few fingers, followed by pulling open or pushing closed the surface on which they are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finger handles are stylish. They feature a sleek, modern appearance that integrates well into many workspaces. So, if you’re tired of using a large, uncomfortable and unattractive handle in your workspace, you may want to switch to a finger handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Finger Handles Are Installed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are different types of finger handles, but most of them are installed via a threaded base. The base of a finger handle is threaded. To install it, you just need to twist it into a threaded hole of the same size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Threaded finger handles such as this don’t require any special tools or fasteners to install. As long as the surface has a threaded hole of the same size, it will support the finger handle. Just twist the finger handle’s threaded base into the hole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
