New cross handles with closed handle contour from KIPP

When hygiene takes center stage

HEINRICH KIPP WERK has developed a new series of cross handles with a protruding steel bushing especially for use under increased hygiene requirements. Five variants are available - from antibacterial to detectable - which are very easy to clean thanks to their closed handle contour with a smooth surface. The protruding steel bushing offers an optimum contact surface and is particularly suitable for cross pin connections thanks to its internal thread design.

If you are looking for sturdy and easy-to-use handles, the cross handles from KIPP are the right choice. The threads of these versatile products are made of robust materials such as steel or stainless steel, while the handles are made of plastic. In terms of functionality, the cross handles comply with DIN 6335. The new cross handle series with protruding steel bushing is based on this standard with its hygiene-optimized, elegant design and covers a wide range of applications with a total of five product variants. In addition to a standard version, antibacterial, high-temperature resistant and visually and metal detectable specifications are available.

The standard version is made of reinforced thermoplastic, while the metal parts are optionally made of steel (blue passivated) or 1.4305 stainless steel. The antibacterial cross grip is not only highly effective against a large number of harmful microorganisms such as bacteria or fungi, but also against multi-resistant germs such as MRSA.

The high-temperature-resistant version uses a special high-temperature plastic that complies with the international standards and guidelines for food and drinking water safety FDA, EU10/2011, NSF and KTW. The threaded bushing or threaded bolt is made of high-quality rust and acid-resistant stainless steel 1.4404. This means that the cross handles are not only suitable for contact with food and drinking water, but are also permanently resistant to hot water and hydrolysis, which makes them ideal for use in steam sterilization, among other things. The high-temperature plastic can be used reliably in contact with hot air at continuous temperatures of max. 160 °C and briefly up to max. 250 °C.

The detectable cross grips were also designed for the food industry to prevent major failures in the event of potential contamination in the production process. A visually detectable version in ultramarine blue (RAL 5002) and a version made of a special metal-detectable plastic are available. Should these operating parts enter the process in whole or in fragments, they can be easily and quickly detected and ejected with the naked eye, automatically with special camera systems or with metal detection systems.

In the standard version, the cross handles are available with handle diameters from 25 to 63 mm and thread sizes from M5 to M16. All other variants are available with a handle diameter of 25 to 50 mm and thread sizes from M5 to M10. In addition to cross handles, HEINRICH KIPP also offers users a large selection of star grips, T-handles and mushroom grips made from various robust materials and with different specifications.
