Latch Clamp 421 — Horizontal base toggle latch with hook, galvanised, Kukamet

The Latch Clamp 421 is a compact horizontal toggle clamp designed for secure fixturing in jigs and fixtures where a hooked closure and reliable holding force are required.

• Galvanised steel construction for corrosion resistance
• 2,500 N maximum holding force for secure retention
• Horizontal base mounting for easy fixture integration
• Hook closure with 41 mm thread length for adjustment

Faster, more reliable clamping for production workflows

The compact toggle design delivers consistent clamping action while keeping set-up times to a minimum. With a 2,000 N clamping force and a 2,500 N holding force, this latch provides a clear margin between applied pressure and the force required to resist release, enhancing safety and repeatability on production lines. The horizontal-foot mounting enables stable attachment to fixture plates, while the hook closure secures parts without additional locking elements. These characteristics combine to reduce the need for rework and support predictable cycle times in both small-batch and serial operations.

Durable, low-maintenance construction that stands up to shop environments

Manufactured from galvanised material, the clamp is protected against corrosion for prolonged service life in workshop and light industrial settings. The lightweight body at 0.32 kg eases handling during assembly or retrofitting of fixtures, yet the component maintains robust mechanical performance. The 41 mm thread length allows fine adjustment of the hook position for precise engagement, making the latch suitable for components with minor dimensional variations. Where longevity and low upkeep are priorities, this latch reduces replacement frequency and maintenance effort.

Integrates simply into existing jigs and tooling with predictable behaviour

The horizontal base and hooked closure simplify retrofitting into existing tooling arrangements: the mounting foot provides a secure reference, while the lever action ensures quick engagement and disengagement for repetitive tasks. The compact footprint supports dense tooling layouts without obstructing adjacent operations. As a general-purpose toggle latch, it is suitable for clamp-and-release workflows in assembly, fixture building and light manufacturing, offering consistent holding performance and simple mechanical adjustment for process optimisation.
