Gibraltar 30504MG Clamp Strap Steel M12 Stud Tapered Nose

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 30504MG is a steel clamp strap designed for use in workholding and fixturing applications on milling machines, drill presses, and machining centers. The tapered nose profile allows the strap to apply clamping force close to the workpiece, improving holding stability. The M12 stud size provides a secure, standardized thread engagement. Machined from 1018 steel with a black finish, this strap offers consistent geometry and durability under repeated clamping cycles. It measures 64 mm in overall length, 29 mm in width, and 13 mm in height, with 18 mm of travel to accommodate varying workpiece and step-block heights.

This clamp strap is suited for use in production machining and toolroom environments where reliable, repeatable workholding is required. The plain heel and serrated bearing surface help prevent slipping during clamping. It is installed by trade machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance mechanics working with standard T-slot tables and modular fixturing systems. The 23 mm centerline-of-slot to nose dimension allows for precise positioning relative to the workpiece edge.

Key Features

• Tapered nose design concentrates clamping force directly at the workpiece contact point
• Serrated bearing surface resists slippage under load
• M12 stud size for compatibility with standard T-slot hardware
• 18 mm of travel accommodates a range of workpiece and riser heights
• 1018 steel construction with black finish for corrosion resistance and durability
• Plain heel style for use with flat step blocks or parallels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard component for M12 T-slot workholding setups on milling machines, drill presses, and similar machine tool tables.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or toolmakers using standard T-slot nuts, step blocks, and an appropriate torque wrench for M12 fasteners. Ensure the machine table is clear of chips and debris before seating the strap. Power down and lock out the machine before making any fixture adjustments. Do not exceed the load rating of the T-slot table or stud assembly.
