Vertical lever clamp 251 by Kukamet — galvanised, 2000 N clamping force

The Vertical lever clamp 251 is a compact vertical clamping device for rapid workpiece fixation in fixtures and jigs, engineered for secure 90° positioning with a horizontal foot for straightforward mounting.

• 2000 N clamping force
• 3370 N holding force
• Galvanised steel finish
• Horizontal foot, 90° mounting

Consistent clamping power for repeatable production

The clamp delivers a rated 2000 N clamping force and a 3370 N holding force, ensuring reproducible fixation in repetitive operations. These figures indicate the maximum active clamping pressure and the static retention capacity respectively; the distinction matters when setting stop blocks or designing fixtures. The robust force values reduce slippage and rework, improving throughput and process stability while lowering inspection overhead. The galvanised surface adds corrosion resistance, so the mechanical performance is retained in workshop environments where humidity or coolant exposure is present.

Compact mounting for versatile fixture layouts

Designed with a horizontal foot and a fixed 90° clamping orientation, the unit integrates simply into modular tooling plates and welded fixtures. With a mass of 0.71 kg, the clamp minimises additional load on moving subassemblies and allows multiple units to be deployed without excessive weight build-up. The horizontal foot simplifies alignment: the base fastens to the mounting plane and the lever action provides a clear vertical clamping travel, making cycle timing predictable and repeatable in automated or manual setups.

Durable construction and straightforward function

Constructed from galvanised steel, the clamp resists surface corrosion while offering the mechanical toughness expected for daily shop-floor use. The lever mechanism is a proven toggle-style design, converting operator or actuator motion into high clamping force with positive lock at the end position; this ensures the workpiece remains secured even under vibration. The Kukamet unit (SKU 251-4) is thus suitable for production jigs, assembly stations and maintenance tooling where quick engagement and reliable holding are essential. Basic installation requires common fasteners and minimal adjustment, which keeps setup time low and maintenance tasks simple.
