Kipp K0116.3A31 Adjustable Clamping Handle 5/16-18

Product Description

The KIPP K0116.3A31 is a threaded-hole adjustable clamping handle designed for secure, tool-free locking and release in industrial positioning and clamping applications. The handle features a die cast zinc body with a powder-coated black finish and steel components finished in black oxide. At 3.11 inches in handle length and a hub diameter of 0.83 inches, it accepts a 5/16-18 threaded fastener with a usable threaded depth of 0.55 inches. The adjustable design allows the handle arm to be repositioned to clear obstructions during operation, making it practical in tight or frequently adjusted assemblies. Licensed trades and machine assemblers install this type of component on fixtures, jigs, guards, and adjustment mechanisms.

This clamping handle is suited for use on machine tools, industrial equipment, fixtures, and positioning systems where repeatable hand-tightening is required. The ball-end handle arm style and 20-degree arm angle provide ergonomic grip and clearance in confined mounting locations. The threaded-hole mount type allows direct engagement with a threaded stud or bolt. It is appropriate for both light manufacturing environments and maintenance applications where toolless access to adjustment points is a design requirement.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style or aftermarket replacement adjustable clamping handle for industrial fixtures, machine tools, and positioning equipment using 5/16-18 threaded studs or bolts.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machine builders, maintenance technicians, or fixture assemblers using standard hand tools. Ensure the mating threaded stud or bolt is clean and undamaged before engaging the handle. Do not exceed the rated clamping force for the thread size and material. Verify the handle arm is repositioned away from pinch points before operating adjacent moving components.
