A handle connectable to a screw-type mechanical drive component for transmitting to the latter a first torque comprises first connection means, defining a constraint axis, for the connection of the handle to the mechanical drive component, a ring nut to which a second torque is manually applicable, support means of the ring nut for rotatably supporting the latter around an axis of rotation coinciding, in use, with the constraint axis, second means for connecting the ring nut to the support means, for connecting/disconnecting the ring nut and the support means in a mechanical and selective way, so that the ring nut is kinematically connected to the support means when rotated around the axis of rotation with a second torque lower than a threshold value and kinematically disconnected from the same upon exceeding such a threshold value.
