Kukamet Vertical clamp 242 — 86 mm arm, 6,000 N holding force

The Vertical clamp 242 is a robust lever clamp for vertical mounting, designed for workshop fixtures and production jigs where secure, repeatable clamping is required

• Massive holding arm for high stability
• 86 mm arm reach for compact setups
• Holding force up to 6,000 N
• Vertical foot mounting for secure attachment

Consistent high-force clamping for reliable production

The clamp delivers a holding force up to 6,000 N while requiring an actuation force of 2,000 N, which translates into secure workholding without excessive operator effort. This performance improves cycle stability and reduces rework caused by slippage. The lever mechanism converts input force into a dependable clamping action, making the device suitable for repeated operations on assembly lines or machining fixtures. The documented force data enables planners to calculate safety margins and plan tooling layouts with confidence.

Space-saving arm and secure vertical mounting

A compact 86 mm arm reach and a vertical foot mounting ensure the clamp integrates into confined jigs and tooling stacks with minimal interference. The 120° operating angle provides a clear path for loading and unloading components while maintaining contact force across the clamped area. At a mass of 2.12 kg, the unit is substantial enough to remain stable in use yet compact to retrofit into existing fixtures. These dimensions support efficient layout planning and a lower overall machine footprint.

Durable finish and robust construction for long service life

The body features a blackened finish that provides basic corrosion resistance and a professional appearance, while the massive holding arm increases fatigue resistance under repetitive loads. The materials and hardwearing design reduce maintenance intervals and contribute to consistent clamping geometry over time. Routine checks of pivot points and mounting bolts are sufficient for preventive care, keeping downtime to a minimum and preserving clamp performance throughout production cycles.

Ready for straightforward integration into tooling systems

Designed as a lever-style vertical clamp, the unit is compatible with common fixturing conventions and can be mounted directly to machine tables or fixture plates using the vertical foot. The clear technical values—arm length, forces and angle—support rapid engineering decisions during fixture design. Metav’s quality-filtered stock in Emmerich ensures dependable supply and traceable sourcing for industrial buyers who prioritise continuity and component consistency in their toolroom procurement.

FAQ

What is the difference between actuation and holding force?
Actuation force is the input required to operate the lever; holding force is the clamping force maintained on the workpiece. The Kukamet Vertical clamp 242 converts an actuation force of 2,000 N into a holding force up to 6,000 N.

Can the clamp be fitted to existing fixture plates?
Yes. The clamp is designed for vertical foot mounting and can be bolted to standard fixture plates or machine tables, enabling straightforward retrofitting into existing jigs.

Is the finish corrosion resistant for workshop use?
The unit has a blackened finish that offers basic corrosion protection and a durable surface for workshop environments; periodic inspection of pivot points is recommended to maintain long-term performance.

What types of applications suit this clamp?
The clamp is suitable for production jigs, assembly fixtures and machining setups where repeatable, high-force clamping is required; its compact arm length and robust design favour tight or modular fixtures.
