Dumb woman here: which part of the bolt fits into the screw, the larger (knob) part or the skinnier part? It works both ways, but which is the right way? Thanks.

The product page actually has an illustration showing how the knob connects to the bolt. The knob has the large part on top, with the bolt screwing into the lower (narrower) part. You can put a washer on the bolt (on the underside of the carrier's "lip") if you want it to be more secure.

It is the end that is female threaded and you just put it in the drill. You could buy a short piece of threaded rod at the hardware store and screw it in and it would make the end smaller to fit in your drill. I use a very large drill because I have one.

I used a very small allen wrench and used a lot of pressure. I didn't have a correct tool. I just tried my best to keep the opposite end still to tighten the screws. Ultimately one of the screws got lost, and I ended up replacing it with a small bolt and screwed a nut on and added epoxy glue.

The other poster was correct. The white piece acts as the nut... the threaded rod that goes into the fan itself to which that plastic nut is screwed on to would be the "screw". In fact I replaced that threaded rod myself as the one with the fan was not quite long enough once I tiled the backsplash. The threaded rod and consequently the plastic screw piece are 1/4"-20 for reference.

The design is for the bolts that are supplied at purchase or those specific for replacements (6"). Any other size will not fly true and will be dangerous to use.

I think the screw is to let the fat drain out. The screw may be plastic so I take it out when I cook. I also bought this from Amazon and this works great!! Thanks, Roma, Colorado.

It's my understanding the screw top part is a standard size. The thicker the anode the better (it will last a little longer). And if length is the question, they can all be shortened with a hacksaw.

Hi, I used this knob on a smaller lid. We wanted a larger knob because its easier to hold on to.

I am not fluent in hardware speak, so I just took my screw to our local hardware store and told the man how much too long the screw was and he got me what I needed. Sorry I can't be more specific. I do love my cabinet handles!

It shouldn't bolt to the bar, you tighten the screws up against the bar. I believe you are supposed to use a torque wrench to measure the amount that you tighten it

the bolt has to be threaded through the rack so you have to screw it in vs. just trying to push through the other side. hope that helps!

I use a 1 and 1/8 inch wrench to hold bolt in place and a 1 and 1/8 inch socket for the nut. when tightening the nut the wrench holds the bolt in place from turning.. you may need to use 2 sockets one for nut and one for bolt instead of a wrench and socket.. it is also helpful to have someone to help when placing and removing the rack.

The adapters for the knob are plastic and unthreaded. You simply choose the adapter that most closely matches the thread size and slowly screw the knob into place, creating the threads along the way. If you have a tap you can tap the plastic. Make sure you thread it in place as much as possible to keep it from coming loose. I live the knob, it works great and I haven't had it come loose at all.

Not sure what size the screw is but my screws were to long so i took the knob and screw to home depot and was able to find a shorter screw that fit.

Thanks for the answers, I tighten the screw in each and they both work. Thanks

The bolt (screw) circle is 11 5/8" so the hole diameter should be about 1/2" smaller than that or NO BIGGER THAN 11 1/8" otherwise the screws will have nothing to screw into. You can probably get away with using only 4 screws at 12-3-6 and 9 O'Clock. That's what I did.

I assume you meant the 1/4-20 threaded screw with the plastic knob that attaches to either the top or bottom. You can contact the MFG for a new one or a 1/4-20 bolt and washer of the appropriate length will work also. You will just not have the plastic knob.
