Screw, handlebar clamp 5/8" x 1BA
Handlebar clamp screw, 5/8 in. x 1BA, used to secure control lever assemblies to the handlebar.
This is the handlebar clamp screw, 5/8 inch by 1BA thread, listed in the parts book under the HANDLEBARS AND CONTROL LEVERS figure. It shows up in catalog appearances for 1976 through 1978, so it's associated with that stretch of unit-construction Triumphs in our records.

The job here is straightforward: it clamps the control lever assembly to the handlebar, holding the lever housing tight so your controls don't shift around while riding. It's a small fastener but an important one, since a loose clamp screw means a lever that rotates or slides on the bar when you don't want it to.
If you're replacing one, check the thread and length against what's actually on your bike before ordering, since handlebar control hardware varied a bit across model years and levers.
