About this product
The Bessey 4800S-18 heavy-duty steel bar clamp is designed for rugged industrial metalwork, heavy welding, and structural steel fitting. With an 18 in. clamping capacity and a 7 in. throat depth, this clamp generates up to 4,800 lbs. of holding force to keep heavy metal components securely in place during tacking, welding, or machining.
Built with a drop-forged sliding arm and cold-drawn profile steel rail, the clamp offers high rigidity to resist flex under heavy load. The spindle includes a hex-head top for wrench or socket assistance when additional clamping pressure is required, and the heavy-duty swivel pad automatically conforms to flat or angled workpiece surfaces.
