1-7/16" Second Hand -  Brass

Step hands are considered to be optional additions to clocks. They are measured from the centre of the mounting bushing to the tip of the clock hand. This second hand has an American “I” shaft configuration.
     
      • Recommended for use with Mini Movements 
 
⇓ Scroll Down for Clock Motors and Accessories ⇓ ⇓ Choose Silent Sweeping Motion, or Step Motion,  or Chime/Pendulum Motors ⇓
High Torque Clock Motors are more powerful than standard/mini motors - made specifically to handle the extra weight of longer clock hands up to 18" in length. Standard/Mini movements run clock hands less than 5 inches long. 

how to choose clock movements and hands

How do I choose the right size clock motor & hands? 
1) Refer to the figure here, or Click Here for helpful info (a new window or tab will open)  

2) The size of hands is based on the length of the minute hand from the mounting hole to the end of the minute hand. (Figures 3 & 4) 

3) Our clock motors are sized by the thickness of the dial the movements can go through.  EG. High torque Q-64 will go through up to 5/8" thick material, while standard/mini motor Q-11 will go through 1/8" thick clock faces. (Figure 1 and  item "A" in Figure 2)


Tip 1)  If your material is too thick, consider removing some to in-set the clock.  Or if your clock face material is too thin, consider adding some material behind the face so the hands will sit closer to your clock face. 

Tip 2) Most hands can be slightly trimmed if need be.

Tip 3) Our customers also spray paint them.

Perfect! 01/23/2019
By Linda S. Gribko
These hands and the mechanism I bought were exactly what I needed to fix a little clock that I thought had ticked its last years ago. Everything was a perfect fit and the service was excellent. Will definitely order from Bear Woods again.

Small proportioned clock hands are so hard to find let alone to get them in brass, Bear Woods cams through and solved a major supply dilemma. Mahalo nui loa

Nice but... 02/26/2022
By Munish Taneja
The hands were nice but the old hands fit
I use the old hands
Wish there was a way to figure out if the old hands would fit a new clock
