Gibraltar 7C80KP07AAN001G Adjustable Clamping Handle

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 7C80KP07AAN001G is an adjustable clamping handle designed for tool-free tightening and release in fixture, jig, and machinery applications. The handle features a 3/8-16 threaded stud and a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) grip body that provides a firm, comfortable hold during repeated adjustments. At 1.46 inches actual handle height and 3.58 inches actual handle length, the compact profile fits in confined spaces without sacrificing leverage. The 0.63-inch hub diameter and 0.45-inch hub height allow secure seating against mounting surfaces. Weighing 0.13 pounds, this handle is suited for light-duty clamping tasks where quick hand-adjustment is required.

This clamping handle is used in industrial, manufacturing, and trade-shop environments where operators need to lock or release components without tools. Typical applications include workholding fixtures, machine guards, inspection equipment, adjustable brackets, and panel assemblies. The 3/8-16 thread size is a common standard fastener thread, making this handle a practical retrofit or replacement on existing equipment. It is installed by maintenance technicians, machine operators, and fabricators working with threaded stud receivers on metal or plastic assemblies.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 threaded stud for compatibility with standard threaded receivers

Compatibility

Designed as a standard adjustable clamping handle for any fixture, bracket, or machine assembly using a 3/8-16 threaded stud receiver.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools — thread the stud into the receiving nut or insert by hand and tighten to the desired clamping load. Ensure the mating thread is clean and free of debris before installation to prevent cross-threading. Do not use a wrench or driver on the handle body, as TPE grips are not designed for mechanical torquing. Inspect the thread engagement periodically in high-cycle applications to confirm secure clamping.
