Vertical clamp 242 — Vertical toggle clamp, 2,000 N clamping force (Kukamet)

A Vertical clamp 242 for secure workholding in jigs and fixtures, engineered with a vertical base for upright mounting and consistent repeatability

• 2,000 N clamping force capacity
• 6,000 N holding force for secure fixation
• Vertical base for compact, upright mounting
• Blackened finish for corrosion resistance

Reliable holding power for productive workflows

The clamp delivers 2,000 N nominal clamping force with a rated 6,000 N holding capacity, enabling dependable fixation during machining and assembly cycles. High static holding capacity reduces the risk of workpiece movement under intermittent loads, which supports shorter cycle times and fewer reworks. By specifying the forces in Newtons, planners obtain a directly comparable performance figure for process validation; this clarity helps to match the clamp to the required clamping strategy and to downstream quality criteria.

Space-saving mounting for compact fixtures and tooling

Fitted with a vertical base that occupies minimal bench depth and allows upright installation, the clamp supports compact jig layouts where horizontal space is at a premium. The lever geometry with a 120° operating angle provides a clear locked position while keeping the actuator footprint small. With a mass of 2.34 kg, the unit balances solidity and ease of handling during fixture assembly, permitting straightforward integration into modular tooling plates without excessive counterweights or reinforcement.

Durable finish designed for workshop environments

The blackened finish offers an even surface treatment that improves resistance to routine shop-floor wear and reduces light reflection in assembly areas. The finish contributes to long-term visual stability and helps delay the onset of corrosion in typical industrial atmospheres. As a result, maintenance intervals are extended and the clamp retains functional appearance over repeated cycles, supporting predictable spare-part planning and lower life-cycle handling costs.

Clear technical specification to speed purchasing and planning

Key identifiers such as SKU 242-6 and GTIN 8680731508840 allow rapid ordering and unambiguous inventory management. The clamp’s compact design and specified forces simplify layout calculations for jig engineers and procurement alike: the distinction between clamping force (force applied by the actuator) and holding force (residual capacity to resist separation) is stated to aid selection and safety validation. With these objective data points, integration into production fixtures and quality documentation becomes more straightforward and verifiable.
