Horizontal clamp 551-3 – Galvanised horizontal toggle clamp with low, self-adjusting foot (Kukamet)

A Horizontal clamp 551-3 designed for secure temporary workpiece holding in welding, assembly and fixture applications, featuring a low-profile foot for tight setups.

• Galvanised finish for corrosion resistance
• Self-adjusting low foot for uneven workpieces
• Clamping force 2,500 N
• Holding force 3,200 N

Secure clamping for repeatable fixtures

The 551-3 delivers quantifiable performance: a clamping force of 2,500 N combined with a holding force of 3,200 N ensures repeatable results in series production and jigs. These figures translate into reliable retention during machining or assembly, reducing rework and downtimes. The toggle mechanism converts lever travel into stable pressure, providing efficient, mechanical advantage without complex adjustments.

Compact, low-profile design for tight setups

A low-profile foot and compact footprint allow the clamp to be mounted where space is limited. With a width of 55.5 mm, a height of 51 mm and a mass of 0.53 kg, the unit fits into confined fixtures and on thin fixture plates while keeping overall weight low. The reduced clearance requirement simplifies fixture layout and enables closer part spacing, supporting higher throughput in constrained work envelopes.

Durable finish and automatic alignment for long service life

The galvanised surface protects against corrosion in workshop and light industrial environments, extending service intervals and preserving appearance. The self-adjusting foot compensates for slight part variation or uneven clamping surfaces, ensuring full-face contact and even force distribution. Together, these features reduce maintenance needs and help maintain consistent clamping behaviour over prolonged use.

Easy integration into existing fixture systems

As a horizontal toggle clamp with a lever-actuated design, the unit integrates smoothly into assembly rigs, welding jigs and manufacturing fixtures. The simple mounting geometry and standard dimensions permit quick replacement or addition to existing setups, while the robust construction supports repetitive cycles in production. Where predictable mechanical clamping is required, this solution offers a pragmatic balance of reliability and compactness.
