It measures 1.5 inches wide and 0.75 inches high, with an overall length of 6 inches and 3.5 inches of travel. The stud size is 17\/32 inches and the tap size is 1\/2-13 inches. This clamp is used to secure workpieces or components to machine tables, fixtures, and fabrication setups. The tapered profile allows for positive clamping force as the clamp is tightened against the work surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis strap clamp is suited for metalworking, machining, and fabrication environments where reliable workholding is required. It is commonly used by machinists and tool-and-die professionals setting up milling machines, drill presses, and manual machining fixtures. The black oxide finish reduces surface reflectivity and provides light corrosion protection in shop environments. Sold individually, it is compatible with standard T-slot table setups that accept 1\/2-13 stud hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTapered U-shaped profile delivers consistent clamping force across the clamp travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eC1018 carbon steel construction for strength and durability in machining applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide coating provides light corrosion resistance and low-reflectivity finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3.5 inches of travel accommodates a range of workpiece heights\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-13 tap size compatible with standard T-slot stud hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 6-inch overall length suits tight fixture setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/2-13 T-slot stud and bolt systems commonly found on milling machine tables and machining fixtures.

Secure the clamp using a properly sized 1\/2-13 stud, step block, and nut; ensure the clamp bears on the workpiece and step block at roughly equal heights to avoid rocking. Do not overtighten without a step block supporting the clamp tail, as this can damage the workpiece or deflect the clamp. Inspect threads on the stud and tap before installation to ensure proper engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C1018\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.75 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTravel\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStud Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-13 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTapered\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 88365176\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691511021874,"sku":"88365176","price":49.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/90397e39a62913ace33f8a5c8d9718b6.jpg?v=1788286245","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-88365176-u-shaped-tapered-strap-clamp-carbon-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
