Knobs for M3, M4, M6, M8

Various knobs for cylinder head screws with M3/M4/M6 or M8 thread.

For explanation, I have designed two different versions.

The standard version has a hexagon socket integrated in the knob. The screw is inserted or glued onto this, whereby the thread length of the screw remains the same.

The "thread" - version is for high stress when turning with a very large torque. For this purpose, the screw is screwed into the knob and glued in place. This shortens the screw by approx. 5 mm, but the connection is extremely strong and resilient.

Whether you are a teacher, student or hobbyist and curious about physics and other STEM subjects - we offer a platform with a constantly growing selection of project ideas, DIY lab equipment from the 3D printer and matching software. Plus, of course, the necessary tutorials and assembly instructions.

To get started yourself, download our 3D models, software and instructions for free and experience for yourself how easy and inexpensive it is to realise your own experiments. With PrintedLabs, we not only want to awaken the joy of science and STEM subjects, but also promote analytical thinking, problem-solving skills and structured working methods. Our claim to ourselves is:

• To make science and STEM subjects fun through self-built "lab equipment" and its application.
• Developing analytical and creative thinking, problem-solving skills and learning structured working methods for setting up and carrying out scientific experiments.
• The teaching of basic knowledge of data processing and the evaluation and interpretation of measurement data.
• Good performance for detailed experimental results.
• Compatibility of all components and associated software.
• Simple and cost-effective assembly using standard tools and additional components.
• Robust 3D-models in printing, production and handling.
• High modularity to enable "free experimentation".
