Kipp K0270.3A41 Adjustable Clamping Handle 3/8-16

Product Description

The KIPP K0270.3A41 is an adjustable tension lever clamping handle designed for secure, tool-free clamping in industrial and mechanical assembly applications. The handle body is molded from fiberglass-reinforced plastic, providing a rigid, lightweight grip with good chemical and impact resistance. The threaded insert and internal components are AISI 303 stainless steel with a bright finish, giving the fastening hardware corrosion resistance suitable for light industrial environments. The handle arm sits at a 20-degree angle and extends 3.15 inches in radius, allowing the lever to be repositioned to avoid obstructions during adjustment. This style of clamping handle is installed by maintenance technicians, machine builders, and equipment assemblers working on jigs, fixtures, and panel-mounted components.

The K0270.3A41 fits applications requiring a compact adjustable lever handle with a 3/8-16 threaded hole mount. The hub diameter measures 0.85 inches with an overall height of 2.28 inches and a base diameter of 0.63 inches. The threaded engagement depth is 0.94 inches, accommodating standard 3/8-16 threaded studs or bolts. This handle is suited for use on machine tool fixtures, enclosures, positioning equipment, and general-purpose industrial hardware where a hand-tightened clamping lever is preferred over a fixed knob or standard bolt.

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/8-16 threaded studs or bolts in industrial fixtures, machine assemblies, and mechanical clamping applications requiring an adjustable lever-style handle.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tooling - thread the handle onto a 3/8-16 stud or bolt and hand-tighten to the desired clamping position. Before installing on powered or pressurized equipment, isolate and lock out the machine per applicable safety procedures. Verify that the threaded stud engagement does not exceed the 0.94-inch hole depth to avoid bottoming out. The lever arm can be repositioned by loosening and rotating it to a clear working angle before re-tightening.
