Kupo KCP-194 5/8" (16MM) Lockable Swivel Rod Clamp – Ratcheted Handle for One-Action Rod Lock

The Kupo KCP-194 is a lockable swivel rod clamp designed for 5/8" (16mm) rods. It features a ratcheted handle that locks the rod with a single clamping action, and it includes a center jaw that enables full 360-degree swivel.

How it works

The ratcheted handle engages the clamp and secures the rod in a single movement, which simplifies setup and adjustment. The center jaw holds the rod while permitting a full 360-degree swivel, allowing you to orient the attached accessory precisely before locking it in place.

When to choose the KCP-194

Choose this clamp when you need a lockable swivel solution for 5/8" (16mm) rods and prefer the form factor of a square head. It matches the functional design of the KCP-192 but offers the square-shape alternative without changing the core locking and swivel capabilities.
