Kipp K0270.2A31X30 Adjustable Clamping Handle 5/16-18

Product Description

The KIPP K0270.2A31X30 is a threaded stud adjustable clamping handle designed for secure, tool-free fastening in industrial and mechanical assembly applications. The handle body is molded from fiberglass-reinforced plastic in a modern arm style with a 20-degree arm angle, providing a firm grip and resistance to wear in demanding environments. The stud and hardware components are stainless steel to AISI 303 specification with a bright finish, offering corrosion resistance in light-exposure settings. The 5/16-18 threaded stud extends 1.18 inches from the base, and the overall handle length measures 2.56 inches. Weighing just 0.09 pounds, this handle is suitable wherever a lightweight, repeatable clamping solution is required.

This adjustable clamping handle is used in light industrial machinery, enclosures, fixtures, jigs, and equipment panels that require frequent manual adjustment or access. It is well suited for machine tool, automation, and instrumentation applications where operators need hand-tightening capability without additional tooling. The handle is compliant with REACH and RoHS standards, making it appropriate for use in regulated manufacturing environments. Installation is handled by machinists, millwrights, or assembly technicians working with standard threaded fastener systems.

Key Features

• 5/16-18 threaded stud connection for direct installation into standard tapped holes
• Fiberglass-reinforced plastic handle body for strength and lightweight performance
• Stainless steel stud and components to AISI 303 specification with bright finish
• 20-degree modern arm angle for ergonomic hand-tightening grip
• REACH compliant and RoHS compliant for regulated manufacturing environments
• Compact overall height of 1.79 inches suitable for space-constrained installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit clamping handle for machinery, fixtures, and equipment panels using a 5/16-18 threaded stud mount.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or assembly technicians using standard hand tools. Thread the stud into a tapped 5/16-18 hole and tighten by hand to the required clamping force. Do not use power tools or impact drivers to drive the stud, as this may damage the plastic handle body or strip the thread. Verify that the mating thread depth is sufficient to fully engage the 1.18-inch stud length before final assembly.
