Kipp K0270.2A31X25 Adjustable Clamping Handle 5/16-18

Product Description

The KIPP K0270.2A31X25 is a threaded stud adjustable clamping handle designed for use in industrial machinery, fixtures, and equipment assemblies where tool-free manual adjustment and secure clamping are required. The handle body is molded from fiberglass-reinforced plastic in a modern arm style, offering a firm grip with resistance to common shop chemicals and mechanical stress. The stud is machined from AISI 303 stainless steel with a 5/16-18 thread and a stud length of 0.98 inches. The handle arm spans 2.56 inches in radius length with an overall height of 1.79 inches, making it a compact yet functional clamping solution for precision positioning applications. Licensed HVAC, machine tool, or industrial maintenance technicians commonly specify this handle for jigs, guards, and adjustment mechanisms.

This adjustable clamping handle is suited for use on machine tool fixtures, industrial enclosures, assembly jigs, and equipment panels in both light manufacturing and maintenance environments. The threaded stud mount allows direct installation into tapped holes on metal or plastic housings. The 20-degree handle arm angle and modern design profile allow ergonomic operation in confined or tight-clearance mounting locations. The black fiberglass-reinforced plastic body and bright-finish stainless steel hardware make this handle appropriate for both indoor and moderately demanding industrial settings.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit clamping handle for industrial fixtures, machine tool assemblies, and equipment panels requiring a 5/16-18 threaded stud mount.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the stud directly into a prepared 5/16-18 tapped hole by hand or with standard hand tools. De-energize and lock out any associated machinery before installing or replacing clamping handles on live equipment. Verify thread engagement depth against the 0.98-inch stud length to ensure secure fastening without bottoming out. Do not exceed the manual clamping torque appropriate for fiberglass-reinforced plastic components.
