What is it?


Recommended Posts

Howdy from eastern Oklahoma and welcome to the forum,

if you haven’t yet take a look at the read this first thread, it has some tips an tricks to help navigate the forum,

that’s a very cool interesting tool you have there, it looks like it’s brass so that would make it for a non sparking application, so gas industry would be a good guess, 

but I don’t know for sure

I can't claim to KNOW what it is, but my guess is that it is a valve handle or some other control handle. From the square inset for the stem to fit in, and the raised end that looks like it could be something that would fit in a detent to hold that position. The swivel allows it to raise out of the detent to move to another position. Either gravity or a spring might hold it down until the other end was depressed to raise it out of the detent.
