Compatibility and recommended pairing

• To be paired with: scrocchetto 38.180.01/02.

Pairing with the indicated latch allows completing the closing group with components from the same family. During replacement, always check the code of the existing component or the door configuration to ensure correct matching.

Dimensional references (available data)

• For hatches up to: 19 mm (reference associated with code 38.181.21).

The value provided is useful as a practical reference for choosing the knob based on the door thickness. If the thickness is unknown, it is advisable to measure it before purchase or compare it with the component already installed.

Typical applications

The 38.181.21 knob is used in various onboard and technical situations where a simple and immediate grip point is needed to operate a hatch or door. In particular, it can be used for:

• Hatches and doors access to technical compartments.
• Internal closures on furniture and paneling, when the use of a compatible latch is required.
• Maintenance interventions and replacement of worn or no longer uniform hardware with the rest of the equipment.
• Fittings and refitting where consistency between Osculati components of the same series is desired.

Being a hardware item, the correct application depends on the configuration of the hatch and the type of latch used. The matching indication with codes 38.180.01/02 helps guide the choice towards a coordinated solution.

Advantages in installation and spare parts management

Usage and operational notes

Checks before purchase

• Hatch thickness control: code 38.181.21 is associated with the reference “for hatches up to 19 mm”.
• Latch check: for a correct match, consider the latch 38.180.01/02.
• Comparison with the existing component: if it is a replacement, compare the code and configuration of the knob already installed.

General installation instructions

The assembly depends on the hatch configuration and the adopted locking system. In case of doubts, it is advisable to refer to the hardware already present or to the documentation of the latch/knob group, so as to maintain the correct correspondence between components.

Practical maintenance advice

During replacement, it can be useful to also check the condition of the matched latch: intervening on both components, when necessary, helps maintain smooth operation and a uniform aesthetic finish of the locking point.
