My H F kept breaking. Ordered aluminum from Amazon. Came with extra set of handles. Have not broke one yet.

I could just be unlucky. Or that the two levers that broke were off the same original handle and the 2nd one broke shortly after the first?
I read some amazon reviews on handles with the different style of levers and saw people complaining where those broke too...
I guess I'll see what happens from this point forward. (and I'll keep another handle with me that I can grab parts off if needed. I mean for $8, I'd rather just pop in a new lever or two than re-fabricate another handle to go with my gate frame.)
Again, I've only broke 2 levers, so it's not like it's an epidemic (yet).2008 Moomba Mobius XLV. Monster Cargo Bimini, WS Rev 410's, Polk Cabins, 3 Infinity Subs, PPI amps, WS420, Exile BT, upgraded ballast pumps, up to 3,500+ pounds of ballast, Blue LED's...

Dude. Your pic is the one that has levers that are identical to mine, down to the finest detail of the mold. You're really trying to tell me that you really think the levers you and I have are different plastic?
I might buy it if your lever wasn't one of the ones that was obviously car from the same mold... At least the other link were levers that had a slightly different shape that led me to believe they weren't made in the same factory.Last edited by trayson; 06-13-2017 at 11:05 PM.

All right, thanks for the feedback.
I mean, I would have said the exact same thing as you guys a month ago: "Never had a problem". It's never slipped, never had any trouble sticking to the hull, etc.
Maybe I got a bad one. Maybe it didn't like how I stored it over the winter. Maybe my grip strength is so massive that I have such incredible leverage that plastic is no match for the force I apply!!!!!!!!
Dunno. It's not like my sample size is huge.
FWIW, here's how mine failed and a close up of one of my levers that look remarkably the same as about 1/2 the handles out there:
