Kukamet Vertical toggle clamp B252-3 – 90° vertical mounting, 1,625 N holding force

The Vertical toggle clamp B252-3 is a lever-operated workholding device designed for vertical fixtures where reliable, repeatable retention is required in assembly, welding and machining operations.

• Vertical mount with 90° clamping angle
• Holding force 1,625 N for secure workholding
• Compact weight 0.27 kg for minimal fixture load
• Blackened finish for corrosion resistance

Secure clamping that reduces rework and cycle times

The clamp delivers a holding force of 1,625 N and a clamping force of 1,400 N, providing a measurable basis for fixture design and process reliability. These values translate directly into reduced part movement during operations, which helps lower scrap rates and minimise rework. The mechanism is a classic toggle clamp, which locks mechanically under load; this means the clamping action remains stable even during vibration-prone processes. For planners and production engineers, the documented forces enable straightforward calculation of safety margins and fixture requirements.

Compact fixture design with easy vertical mounting

With a mass of 0.27 kg and a vertical foot attachment, the component offers a very small footprint for space-constrained jigs. The compact design reduces inertial load on moving assemblies and simplifies multi-clamp layouts, enabling closer clamp spacing without compromising accessibility. Installation is designed to be systematic: the vertical mounting orientation secures parts from above and is particularly suited to operations where a perpendicular clamping force is advantageous. The small weight also contributes to faster handling during fixture assembly and easier logistics for modular tooling systems.

Durable finish and consistent 90° positioning for long service life

The item is supplied with a blackened finish, which provides basic surface protection and reduces glare in workshop lighting. The fixed 90° clamping angle ensures perpendicular retention and simplifies alignment checks during set-up. These characteristics together support consistent clamp positioning and extended service intervals. Where fidelity of repetitive positioning matters—such as in short-run assembly or precision welding—the combination of mechanical lock and protective surface reduces the likelihood of downtime due to surface wear or accidental slippage.

Practical applications and integration into production workflows

Engineered for jigs, welding fixtures, inspection stands and light machining fixtures, the clamp is suited to repetitive tasks where quick actuation and dependable retention are priorities. The mechanical locking principle shortens cycle times compared with manual fastening methods, and the measurable force data supports process validation and quality documentation. Integration into modular pallets and fixture plates is straightforward thanks to the vertical mounting arrangement, enabling rapid changeovers and consistent part location across production batches.

FAQ

What types of fixtures suit this clamp?
The clamp fits vertical jigs, welding fixtures and inspection pallets where perpendicular retention is required; the Vertical toggle clamp B252-3 integrates readily into modular fixture plates.

How strong is the clamping action compared with holding force?
The device provides a clamping force of 1,400 N and a holding force of 1,625 N, indicating a secure mechanical lock suitable for light to medium production loads.

Which materials is the clamp appropriate for?
The clamp is a general-purpose workholding device; use it for metal and fabricated components in assembly and light machining where the specified forces meet process requirements.

How should the clamp be mounted?
Mount on a prepared vertical plate using the vertical foot arrangement; ensure the fixture layout accommodates the 90° clamping angle for correct part engagement.

Is any special maintenance required?
Routine inspection and light lubrication of the pivot points is recommended to maintain reliable operation; the blackened finish provides basic corrosion protection but does not replace periodic checks.
