Why Choose the Lovato GEX7162N Shaft Extension?

The Lovato GEX7162N is a genuine shaft extension for door-coupling lever handles, designed for use with compatible Lovato switch disconnectors and control panel operating handles. It provides a practical extension between the internal switch disconnector mechanism and the external door-mounted handle, helping support safe and accessible operation from outside the enclosure.

This accessory is part of the Lovato Electric switch disconnector accessory range and is suitable for selected GE series switch disconnectors. Its 177 mm length and square 7 mm shaft profile make it suitable for panel builders, electrical engineers and machine builders requiring dependable door-coupled isolation assemblies.

With a lightweight construction and compact package size, the GEX7162N is easy to handle, store and install as part of industrial control panel builds. It is commonly used where enclosure depth requires an extended connection between the switch body and the front operating handle.

This helps panel builders create practical, safe and serviceable isolation solutions for industrial machinery, automation panels and electrical distribution enclosures.
