Hammond 1427NGC 3.5 in Centers Metal Handle, Grey Posts, Clear Bar

The 1427NGC is a 3.5 in metal bar handle with plastic end posts from the 1427 Metal Handles w/ Plastic Posts series, made for OEM engineers, panel builders and electronics enclosure users who need a durable pull or carrying handle. Its 3.50 in (89 mm) hole centers make it the second-shortest size in the series table, one step up from the 3 in version when a slightly longer grip is wanted.

The handle uses a heavy duty extruded anodized aluminum bar held between rugged end posts made of Polyamid with 30% reinforced glass fiber and molded-in brass inserts, giving it a modern style. This version pairs grey end posts with a clear extruded aluminum bar, a lighter two-tone combination that suits grey and light-coloured panels. The same size is also offered as 1427NBC and 1427NBB, since the series provides three colour versions for each size.

Key dimensions for this size:

• Mounting hole centers: 3.50 in (89 mm)
• Overall size (L x W x H): 4.26 in x 0.55 in x 1.64 in (108 mm x 14 mm x 42 mm)
