Thread these sanitary knobs into holes so you can open doors and drawers in hygienic environments. They’re commonly used on furniture and equipment in pharmaceutical and food-processing facilities. Made of Buna-N, the seal keeps out contaminants and blocks unhygienic metal-to-metal contact. It’s FDA compliant for direct contact with food, and blue for easy spotting and removal if it falls into your line. Knobs have a 316 stainless steel body, so they resist corrosion from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners. Highly polished, with rounded edges and no horizontal ledges, they leave no room for bacteria to grow.

Length is measured from under the head.

EPDM Sealing Washers—These washers are highly resistant to tearing, scuffs, and scrapes. They are more economical than Fluoroprene Fluoroelastomer, however, they aren't as heat resistant.

Fluoroprene Fluoroelastomer Sealing Washers—These sanitary sealing washers withstand higher temperatures than EPDM, so you can sterilize them with steam. They also resist more chemicals, such as oil, solvents, and acids.
