Gibraltar 88364831 Clamp Strap Ss Radius Nose 1-3/4 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 88364831 is a stainless steel clamp strap designed for secure workholding and fixturing applications. Built from 304 stainless steel, this strap provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments. It features a radius nose profile and accepts a 7/32 inch stud with a 10-32 tap size. Overall length is 1-3/4 inches, width is 1/2 inch, and height is 1/4 inch, with 7/16 inch of travel. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and maintenance trades use this type of strap for machine tool setups, jig work, and fixture clamping where a compact, non-serrated strap is required.

This clamp strap is suited for light-duty fixturing on milling machines, drill presses, and surface plates where low profile clearance is critical. The 1/4 inch height keeps the strap close to the workpiece, and the 13/16 inch hole center to stud center dimension allows for precise positioning. The non-serrated surface is appropriate for applications where contact marking must be minimized. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both shop floor production setups and maintenance repair operations.

Key Features

• 304 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in harsh or wet environments
• Radius nose profile for smooth contact and reduced stress concentration at the nose tip
• Non-serrated clamping surface minimizes marking on workpiece contact areas
• 7/16 inch travel provides adjustment range for varying workpiece heights
• Compact 1/4 inch height suits low-clearance fixturing setups
• 10-32 tap size for compatibility with standard stud and nut hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or new-installation clamp strap for machine tool fixturing and workholding setups that use 7/32 inch studs with 10-32 threading.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with machine tool fixturing practices. Ensure the machine table or fixture plate is de-energized or at rest before setting up or adjusting clamp straps. Use the appropriate stud, step block, and strap bolt hardware to achieve proper clamping force and alignment. Do not overtighten the stud nut beyond hand-snug plus a controlled turn without a verified torque specification for the specific fixturing setup.
