Steel Lever Spindle Replacement

This steel lever spindle measures 5/16 inch square by 1-3/4 inch long and includes a 1/8 inch hole. It serves as a direct replacement for Arrow #12-386-1 3/4 hardware. The satin chrome finish matches existing door trim. Homeowners and maintenance staff can use it to restore lever operation on compatible locks.

Simple Press-Fit Installation

The spindle slides into the lever hub and engages the lock mechanism without tools. A snug fit prevents wobble, but forcing an undersized hub can shear the 1/8 inch hole. Verify the square profile matches the original before pressing it in. No screws or set pins are required for standard lever sets.

Fixed Dimensions Limit Compatibility

The 5/16 inch square cross-section and 1-3/4 inch length suit only locks designed for that exact size. Thicker doors or heavier-duty lever sets often require a larger spindle. Builders needing a longer reach or a different square profile must source a separate part. This spindle does not adapt to other sizes.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 5/16" square spindle fits my lock after installation?

Insert the spindle through both lever hubs; it should rotate smoothly without binding and the 1/8" hole must align with the lever set-screw for a secure fit.

What components come in the box and what must I source separately?

The box contains the steel lever spindle only; you will need to supply the lever handles, set-screws and any mounting hardware required for your door.

Which version should I choose to replace an Arrow #12-386-1 3/4 spindle?

Select the AW45-1-3/4 model — it is a direct replacement for Arrow #12-386-1 3/4 and matches the 5/16" square by 1-3/4" long specification.
