Kipp K0117.3A41X60 Adjustable Clamping Handle 3/8-16

Product Description

The KIPP K0117.3A41X60 is an adjustable clamping handle with a threaded stud connection designed for secure, tool-free clamping in industrial and mechanical assemblies. The handle features a powder-coated, die cast zinc body in black with stainless steel stud and internal components finished in black oxide. The 3/8-16 threaded stud measures 2.36 inches in length, giving adequate thread engagement across a range of fixture thicknesses. The ball-end arm style and 20-degree arm angle allow repositioning during operation, which is a common requirement in jig, fixture, and machine guarding applications. Total handle length is 3.11 inches with an overall height of 2.42 inches.

This clamping handle is suited for use in machine tool, fixture, and equipment-access applications where repeated manual adjustment is required without the use of a wrench. It is commonly installed on CNC fixtures, jigs, guards, work-holding devices, and general industrial machinery. The 3/8-16 thread size is one of the most widely used coarse-thread fastener standards in North American industrial equipment, making this handle a straightforward fit for a broad range of assemblies. Installation is typically handled by maintenance technicians or machine builders.
