Outline cogwheel with eight square teeth and a large open circle at its center
About the Cogwheel black outline icon
An eight-tooth cogwheel sits squarely in the frame, its rectangular teeth evenly spaced around a broad rim and a large open circle at the center. The shape reads instantly as settings, machinery and mechanical work. Use it for a preferences button in app navigation, a configuration panel in a dashboard, manufacturing or maintenance service pages, engineering slide decks, and workshop or automotive signage.
The generous hub circle keeps the interior open, so the gear stays legible when scaled down to toolbar size and pairs cleanly with wrench, screwdriver and slider icons in the same set. Because the teeth are flat-topped rather than pointed, the silhouette holds up well against busy backgrounds; keep it at 24px or larger so the tooth gaps stay visible.
This is the black outline version of the cogwheel icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
It downloads free as an SVG vector or transparent PNG in seven sizes, and the free online editor lets you recolor it, apply gold, silver, neon and gradient styles, add animation, or convert it to EPS, PDF and DXF.
