## Description

This is the Parallel Gripper Kit A, a simple and durable robotics kit that is great for “getting a grip” on pretty much any robotics project! Designed for use with any standard size Hitec or Futaba servo, the gripper kit is easy to assemble and requires only a Phillips Head Screwdriver. This gripper is capable of opening, in a parallel motion, 2.8" wide max, has an overall body dimension of 5" long by 4.1" wide, and offers both 0.77" and 1.5" hub patterns for easy mounting on Actobotics components.

[Actobotics](https://www.sparkfun.com/pages/Actobotics) is a robotics building system based around extruded aluminum channels, gears, precision shafts, and ball bearings. Thanks to the two standardized hole patterns, nearly all Actobotics components can be intuitively connected together. The wide range of components makes building complex electromechanical prototypes or finished projects a reality.

Note: This kit does NOT include a servo. Check the Recommended Essentials (above add to cart) for great standard size servo options.

Features:

- Opening Width - 2.8" (71.12mm)
- Hub Pattern - 0.77" & 1.5"
