Kipp K0108.1A41X20 Tension Lever Clamping Handle 3/8-16

Product Description

The KIPP K0108.1A41X20 is an adjustable tension lever clamping handle designed for secure, tool-free clamping and positioning on threaded stud mounts. The handle arm pivots at 20 degrees and terminates in a ball end, allowing the operator to reposition the lever for unobstructed actuation in tight spaces. The body and stud are steel construction with a powder-coated black finish for corrosion resistance and a clean appearance. The threaded stud is 3/8-16 UNC, with a stud length of 0.787 inches and an overall handle length of 3.465 inches. This type of handle is commonly installed by millwrights, machine builders, and maintenance technicians on jigs, fixtures, and industrial equipment.

This clamping handle is suited for use in light to medium-duty clamping applications found on machine tool fixtures, work-holding assemblies, enclosures, and positioning equipment. The adjustable lever arm allows final clamp-point orientation to be set after installation, which is particularly useful in crowded panel or fixture layouts where a fixed-position handle would interfere with adjacent components. The knob is plastic for comfortable hand grip, while the body and stud maintain steel strength. This part complies with REACH and RoHS standards, making it appropriate for use in environmentally regulated manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Adjustable 20-degree lever arm angle - positions to clear obstructions after installation
• 3/8-16 UNC threaded stud connection for direct thread-in mounting
• Steel body and stud rated to Grade 5.8 material specification
• Powder-coated black finish on both handle and body components
• Ball-end handle arm for positive grip and smooth lever action
• REACH Compliant and RoHS Compliant

Compatibility

Designed for threaded stud mounting applications using 3/8-16 UNC thread. Suitable as a direct replacement or new installation on machine fixtures, enclosures, and positioning assemblies that accept a 3/8-16 threaded clamping handle with a 0.94-inch hub diameter.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the stud directly into the mating 3/8-16 tapped hole in the fixture or panel. De-energize or lock out any machine before servicing clamping hardware on live equipment. Once threaded to the desired engagement depth, the lever arm can be repositioned to the preferred clamping angle without removing the handle. Do not exceed the rated clamping load for the Grade 5.8 stud - consult the fixture design specification for maximum applied torque.
