242 Vertical clamp (Kukamet) — 130 mm arm, 6,000 N holding force

242 Vertical clamp is a vertical toggle clamp designed for secure workholding in metalworking, fabrication and general workshop fixtures, offering high holding force and robust construction for demanding production tasks.

• Massive holding arm with safety lock
• 6,000 N maximum holding force
• 130 mm robust clamping arm
• Blackened finish for corrosion resistance

Secure workholding for demanding operations

The vertical toggle clamp provides 6,000 N holding force paired with a 2,000 N clamping force, delivering stable retention even under heavy machining or pressing operations. The solid holding arm and integrated safety lock reduce the risk of accidental release during secondary operations, supporting continuous production runs with fewer interruptions. The clamp’s vertical mounting foot allows straightforward integration into jigs and fixtures, while the 100° opening angle offers working clearance that balances access with secure engagement.

Compact design that saves space without sacrificing strength

With a 130 mm arm and a compact footprint, the unit occupies little bench or fixture space while still providing substantial mechanical advantage. The clamp’s overall mass and blackened finish contribute to durability and resistance to everyday workshop wear. At approximately 2.402 kg, the device is easy to position during assembly of fixturing systems yet heavy enough to remain stable once mounted. The combination of compact dimensions and high holding values supports denser tooling layouts and efficient shop-floor use.

Robust construction that supports consistency and safety

Machined components and a massive holding arm ensure long-term dimensional stability and repeatable clamping behaviour, which reduces rework and saves setup time. The safety locking mechanism keeps the clamping element secured when engaged, offering an added layer of process safety for manual and semi-automated workflows. These design features make the clamp suitable for repeated cycles in production environments where consistency and operator confidence are essential.

FAQ

What is the maximum holding force of the clamp?
The Kukamet 242 vertical clamp provides a maximum holding force of 6,000 N, with a separate clamping/pressing capacity of 2,000 N for securing workpieces.

How is the clamp mounted to a fixture?
Mounting is via a vertical foot, allowing the unit to be bolted directly to jigs, base plates or bench fixtures for stable integration.

Is the clamp suitable for repeated production cycles?
Yes, the 242 is designed with a massive holding arm and robust construction to ensure repeatable clamping behaviour across many cycles.

What finish does the clamp have and why does it matter?
The clamp has a blackened finish, which improves surface resistance to corrosion and reduces visible wear in workshop environments.

What are the physical dimensions and weight to consider for fixture design?
The clamping arm is 130 mm long and the unit weighs approximately 2.402 kg, values useful for planning fixture layout and load-bearing capacity.
