🔧 Pro Installer Tip:

To install this rubber handle grip onto the steel lever shaft, first clean the shaft with rubbing alcohol. Spray a light mist of aerosol hairspray (or soapy water) inside the grip before sliding it on. It will slip on easily and then dry completely tight to the metal, preventing the grip from slipping or twisting off during heavy operations.
