About the Gear black outline icon
Eight evenly spaced square teeth ring a broad open hub, leaving a thick band between the outer profile and the inner circle. The shape is the universal mark for settings, configuration, maintenance and mechanical work. Use it for app preference menus, admin panels, developer tools, factory and engineering websites, and process or automation diagrams in slide decks.
Symmetry is exact on both axes, so the cog stays steady at any rotation and can be animated as a spinning loader. The wide hollow center leaves room to nest a smaller glyph inside. It pairs with wrench, sliders and toolbox icons; keep the stroke aligned to the pixel grid at 16 and 24 px.
This is the black outline version of the gear icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
