Robohand RP-5-1/8NPT Pneumatic Air Gripper

Robohand RP-5 parallel pneumatic gripper is a compact two‑jaw end effector designed for precise handling of small parts in automation lines. The RP‑5 family, including the 1/8‑inch stroke model, uses a parallel jaw geometry that closes to a stable grip, making it well‑suited for pick‑and‑place, fixture loading, and light assembly tasks in constrained spaces. It operates from standard compressed air at 40–100 psi, with a maximum operating pressure of 100 psi, delivering repeatable actuation and predictable grip forces across cycles. In published specs, the RP‑5 configuration delivers a holding force around 156 N (approximately 35 lbf), depending on jaw geometry and stroke, enabling secure retention of small components during manipulation. The 1/8‑inch stroke provides a short travel suitable for high‑cycle applications, while the gripper’s robust construction accommodates the demands of lightweight automation environments. Compatible with common mounting patterns and variants of the Robohand RP‑5 line, this end effector can be integrated into robotic wrists or fixed fixtures where compact gripping is required.
