BESSEY BAS compact clamp — 88 mm clamping height, 40 mm reach

The BESSEY BAS compact clamp is a workshop-grade compact clamp designed for secure clamping in confined or recessed areas, featuring an aluminium pressure shoe and a closed fixing bore for reliable attachment.

• 88 mm clamping height for deeper workpieces
• 40 mm reach for tight or recessed areas
• Aluminium pressure shoe for gentle contact
• Closed fixing bore for secure mounting

Reliable clamping where space is limited

This compact clamp delivers a notable combination of clamping height and reach, with an effective 88 mm clamping height and 40 mm projection that allow secure gripping of thicker or offset components in narrow setups. The measured values translate directly into fewer repositioning steps on the bench, improving workflow efficiency. For production environments where floor space and fixture room are constrained, the compact construction reduces the need for larger, more cumbersome clamps while maintaining consistent clamping force and repeatability.

Prevents damage while keeping parts stable

Equipped with an aluminium pressure shoe, the clamp ensures even distribution of contact pressure and reduces marking on softer surfaces such as coated panels or finished timber. The pressure shoe acts as a cushioning interface while still transmitting sufficient force for metalworking and assembly tasks. Where component finish is critical, this feature helps preserve surface integrity without sacrificing grip — a practical balance between protection and performance that benefits both prototype workshops and small-batch production.

Secure attachment and straightforward integration

The clamp’s closed fixing bore provides a secure mounting option for permanent or semi-permanent fixture layouts, simplifying fixture design and reducing setup time. Built on the BAS series architecture, the device supports fast retrofitting into existing jigs and benches thanks to its compact footprint and standardised attachment geometry. Durable construction and a design focused on ease of use make it suitable for repetitive tasks in maintenance, fabrication and precision assembly, where consistent clamping and quick repositioning are required.
