Fairlane CC-437-EF Round Gripper Pad Solid Carbide 7/16 in

Product Description

The FAIRLANE CC-437-EF is a solid carbide round positioning gripper pad designed to hold workpieces securely during machining, assembly, or fixturing operations. Measuring 7/16 inches in diameter and 1/8 inches in height, this compact pad features an extra fine diamond tooth pattern that grips surfaces with precision without causing excessive marking or damage. Solid carbide construction delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed for demanding production environments. This gripper pad is installed by machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders who require reliable, repeatable workpiece location.

This pad is suited for use in machine tool fixtures, jigs, robotic end-of-arm tooling, and assembly workholding applications. Its round profile and diamond tooth pattern make it a practical choice for flat or slightly irregular workpiece surfaces where controlled grip and precise positioning are required. The extra fine tooth grade is appropriate for applications where surface finish protection is a priority alongside secure holding.

Key Features

• Extra fine diamond tooth pattern provides controlled grip with reduced surface marking
• Solid carbide construction for high hardness and extended service life
• Round pad shape for consistent omnidirectional grip
• 7/16 inch diameter and 1/8 inch height for compact fixture integration
• Suited for precision workholding, fixturing, and positioning applications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit positioning gripper pad for use in standard workholding fixtures, jigs, and tooling assemblies requiring a 7/16 inch round carbide pad with extra fine diamond tooth pattern.

Installation Notes

Gripper pads of this type are typically installed by machinists or toolmakers using standard mounting hardware appropriate to the fixture design. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and flat before seating the pad. Follow fixture design specifications for securing method to maintain accurate workpiece location. Carbide is brittle and should not be subjected to impact loads or improper clamping during installation.
