Vertical clamp 242 — vertical foot-mounted toggle clamp with 68 mm arm and 5,000 N holding force (Kukamet)

The Vertical clamp 242 provides secure vertical clamping for production and assembly work, combining a lever-style action with a vertical foot for stable installation and rapid locking.

• Vertical foot mounting for stable installation
• Massive holding arm with safety lock
• 5,000 N maximum holding force
• 68 mm arm length, 100° clamping angle

Reliable clamping performance that keeps production moving

The vertical toggle clamp is engineered for repeatable fixture retention under demanding conditions. With a maximum holding force of 5,000 N and a maximum pressing force of 1,500 N, the device delivers a clear capacity advantage where secure workpiece retention prevents movement during machining or assembly. The lever-based mechanism converts operator input into a strong clamping action, reducing the number of rechecks and minimising setup time. This translates directly into higher throughput and fewer stoppages in a production environment where consistency and uptime are critical. The robust design ensures force is applied evenly, supporting precision and repeatability across batches.

Designed for straightforward installation and safe operation

Mounting is simplified by the vertical foot configuration, which provides a stable base and straightforward alignment on vertical surfaces. The massive holding arm is paired with a dedicated safety locking mechanism, preventing accidental release and adding an extra layer of protection in automated or manual workflows. The clamp’s 100° clamping angle and a 68 mm arm length are optimised to accommodate typical workpiece geometries while maintaining compact overall dimensions. Technical teams will appreciate the predictable kinematics and the low-maintenance nature of the mechanism, which reduces downtime and the need for frequent adjustments.

Durable finish and compact weight for long service life

Constructed with a blackened finish that resists corrosion and surface wear, the clamp balances durability with a modest mass of 1.288 kg, making it easy to handle during installation without compromising strength. The lever-style construction and materials selection focus on longevity in workshop environments, so the component sustains repeated cycles with minimal degradation. For engineers specifying fixtures, the compact footprint and reliable locking deliver confidence that clamped parts remain stable through machining, inspection or assembly operations, helping to protect both workpieces and tooling.
