Fairlane PG-0370 Adjustable Positioning Gripper 3/8-16

Product Description

The FAIRLANE PG-0370 is a fully threaded adjustable positioning gripper designed to secure and hold workpieces in place during machining, assembly, or fixturing operations. It features a 3/8-16 thread form with a 1/2 inch thread length and a 3/16 inch internal hex drive for installation and adjustment. The serrated tooth pad pattern with an extra fine tooth grade delivers reliable grip on a range of surface types. A black oxide finish provides basic corrosion resistance for shop and industrial environments. This gripper is installed by maintenance technicians, tooling engineers, and fixture builders working with positioning and workholding systems.

The PG-0370 is suited for use in production fixtures, jigs, and workholding setups where repeatable part positioning is required. The adjustable fully threaded design allows the gripper to be extended or retracted to accommodate varying workpiece heights or surface locations. The 1/4 inch pad diameter and extra fine serrated tooth pattern make it appropriate for applications where a controlled, precise grip is needed without marring delicate surfaces more than necessary. Typical applications include light manufacturing, assembly fixtures, and CNC workholding environments.

Key Features

• Fully threaded design allows continuous height adjustment along the 1/2 inch thread length
• 3/8-16 thread form for compatibility with standard threaded fixture plates and tooling blocks
• 3/16 inch internal hex drive for easy torquing and fine positioning adjustment
• Extra fine serrated tooth grade for precise grip with minimal surface damage
• Black oxide finish for basic corrosion resistance in shop environments
• 1/4 inch pad diameter suited for compact fixture layouts

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use component for standard 3/8-16 threaded fixture plates, tooling blocks, and adjustable workholding assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tooling engineers or fixture technicians using a 3/16 inch hex key. De-energize or lock out any powered equipment associated with the fixture before adjusting or replacing grippers. Thread the PG-0370 into a compatible 3/8-16 tapped hole and adjust to the desired extension before locking in position. Do not exceed the rated thread engagement depth or apply side-loading forces beyond the designed holding capacity.
