Bessey Tools 18 in. OMEGA Bend Anti-Vibration All-Steel F-Clamp, 4-3/4 in. Throat Depth, 1,100 lb Capacity RSC-18

The BESSEY RSC-18 OMEGA bend all-steel F-clamp provides an 18 in. clamping span engineered for heavy metalworking and welding environments subject to high vibration. BESSEY's patented OMEGA bend dampens dynamic shop vibrations, preserving continuous clamping pressure without working loose.

Built in Germany from quality BESSEY steel mills, the fixed arm and integrated pressure plate are forged and tempered as one piece. Featuring a 4-3/4 in. throat depth, the clamp delivers up to 1,100 lbs of clamping force. The contoured OMEGA arc allows the rail to hug workpiece surfaces and access tight corner joints, while the drop-forged, electro-galvanized sliding arm and steel sliding T-bar handle ensure smooth clamping force application.

Features & Benefits

• Anti-Vibration OMEGA Bend: Patented rail bend absorbs severe machine vibration to prevent clamp slip.
• One-Piece Forged Construction: Fixed arm and pressure plate are forged from one solid piece of tempered steel for maximum strength.
• Corner Access Design: OMEGA curve permits flush workpiece contact and clamping into 90-degree corners.
• 18 in. Clamping Capacity: Extended rail length holds wide weldments, structural tubing, and metal assemblies.
• Electro-Galvanized Sliding Arm: Drop-forged steel arm ensures smooth movement and protection against rust.
• Steel Sliding T-Bar Handle: Offers comfortable manual leverage in restricted shop conditions.
