Fairlane FSC-070 Round Positioning Gripper Solid Carbide 10-32

Product Description

The FAIRLANE FSC-070 is a solid carbide round positioning gripper designed to hold workpieces securely in place during machining, assembly, or fixture applications. Measuring 0.5 inches in diameter and 0.5 inches in height, this compact gripper features a fine tooth grade diamond serration tooth pattern that bites into workpiece surfaces to resist movement and slipping. The threaded 10-32 attachment style allows for fast, repeatable installation into fixture plates and tooling blocks. Solid carbide construction provides excellent hardness and wear resistance in demanding production environments. This part is typically installed by machining technicians, tooling engineers, and fixture builders.

The FSC-070 is suited for use in precision fixturing, jigs, and workholding setups where reliable part location is critical. The diamond serration pattern performs well across metal, plastic, and composite workpiece materials. The 10-32 threaded shank installs directly into standard tapped fixture holes, making it a straightforward drop-in component for new builds or replacement of worn grippers on existing tooling. The 0.13-inch flat width accommodates standard tooling for installation and removal.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for high hardness and extended service life
• Fine tooth grade diamond serration pattern for strong, consistent workpiece grip
• 10-32 threaded attachment for fast installation into standard fixture plates
• 0.5 inches diameter and 0.5 inches height for compact fixture integration
• 0.13 inches flat width for use with standard installation tooling
• Uncoated finish - no coating buildup to affect dimensional consistency

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-build component for precision fixture plates and tooling blocks with 10-32 tapped mounting holes.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tooling technicians or fixture builders using standard hand tools sized for a 0.13-inch flat. Ensure the mating fixture hole is properly tapped to 10-32 before installation. Clean the threaded bore of chips and debris before threading in the gripper. Do not overtighten, as solid carbide is brittle and susceptible to cracking under excessive torque.
