Description
Overview:
The Dumper Steering Wheel Spinner - 30° Angled Type is a compact steering aid for heavy machinery where the wheel sits at an angle. The 30-degree offset places the knob in a natural hand position, improving leverage and comfort during frequent manoeuvres. The grip is made from durable plastic for long service and a secure hold, even in wet or muddy conditions. A simple bolt-on fixture clamps to the wheel rim, making it quick to install on most site dumpers and similar machines without drilling. Designed to help achieve smoother, more controlled steering at low speeds and in tight spaces, it reduces effort over long shifts. For easy identification and reordering, this model is referenced by MPN 643.
Key Features:
- 30° angled design improves hand position on tilted steering wheels
- Durable plastic grip for comfort and control, even with work gloves
- Secure bolt-on clamp for fast installation with basic tools
- Universal-style fit for a wide range of dumper and heavy plant steering wheels
- Freely rotating knob helps make tight turns smoother
- Robust build for daily site use and harsh weather conditions
- Aids low-speed manoeuvring, docking, and precise positioning
- Helps reduce operator fatigue during repetitive steering tasks
- Compact form to minimise interference with wheel spokes and controls
- MPN 643 for straightforward identification and spares management
Typical Applications:
Useful on site dumpers, compact loaders, and similar heavy-duty vehicles where frequent steering inputs are needed. Ideal for yard movements, tight access work, loading bays, and off-road manoeuvres on construction or landscaping sites. Suits machines with angled steering columns where a standard straight knob sits awkwardly, helping the operator keep a consistent, controlled grip when edging, reversing, or making repeated short turns.
Also known as:
Often referred to as a steering knob, spinner knob, Brodie knob, control knob for steering wheels, steering aid, or suicide knob. Terminology varies by trade and region, but all describe a rotating hand grip that fixes to the steering wheel to assist with smooth, efficient manoeuvring on plant and machinery.
