Abstract: A polymeric knob is made by a method wherein a unitary part, which comprises a hub, a bar extending across one end of the hub, and an indicator extending from one end of the bar, is molded and wherein a shell is molded over the unitary part, so as to cover portions of the bar, so as to surround portions of the hub, at the same end of the hub, and so as to allow portions of the indicator to remain exposed. One of the unitary part and the cover is molded with a recess or recesses and the other of the unitary part and the cover is molded with a boss or bosses fitting into the recess or recesses so as to interlock the unitary part and the body. A grip may be then molded over portions of the knob so as to allow the same portions of the indicator to remain exposed.
