This is an ergonomic handle replacement for 5 gallon buckets.

I replaced the handles on a bunch of buckets around my house. The first one I replaced because the original handle had crumbled away. Some other buckets handles I replaced were still intact, but I replaced them anyways since I find my version much more comfortable. To remove old handles I used a pair of tin snips.

Of the 4 buckets I put handles on, I found the steel wire handle to be in the range of 3.5 to 3.75mm diameter. This part is designed to snap onto these size wire with some force, and not fall off.

If you print one please click "I Made One" and post a pic. I love to see when people use my designs.
