Bessey Tools 8 in. Jig and Fixture Hold-Down Clamp, 5-1/2 in. Throat Depth, 2660 lb Clamping Force FC24-8

The BESSEY FC24-8 is an 8 in. heavy-duty jig and fixture hold-down clamp designed for metalworking setup tables, welding tables, and machine fixtures. Engineered to mount into welding tables with 50 mm (2 in.) holes or custom fixture plates, this clamp generates up to 2,660 lb of clamping force to secure heavy steel fabrications and metal assemblies.

Providing exceptional versatility, the FC24-8 can be used in 3 distinct modes: fixed non-rotating, fixed with 360-degree rotation, or as a fully removable clamping fixture with 360-degree rotation. The sliding arm is crafted from drop-forged, heat-treated steel, and the cold-drawn steel rail features a spatter-resistant hardened spindle and a MorPad pressure plate that swivels up to 35 degrees to grip flat or angled workpieces.
