Bessey 36 Inch Capacity 6 Inch Throat Depth Rapid Action
The BESSEY rapid action clamps offer an interesting combination of features and benefits in a single clamp. The unusual internal mechanism means that the clamping bolt will move twice as far per handle turn as a normal ACME threaded spindle, this makes for very quick set-up times. This clamp also features a positive pinching action. The pressure pad cannot rotate; therefore, there can be no twisting action transferred to the surface of the work piece, as sometimes happens with regular swivel pads, keeping the work pieces from twisting out of alignment. The no-twist clamping action, robust contact surfaces and a heavy duty rail combine to produce an offering that allows for speed and strength.
BESSEY anti-slip system – the set screw is molded into the sliding arm and interlocks with the serrated rail to prevent sliding
Malleable cast iron fixed jaw and sliding arm generate powerful, rigid clamping.
Top jaw press fitted to rail – no mechanical fasteners to loosen
High-quality profiled steel rail acts as a reliable reinforcement against torsional forces, while the serration on six faces additionally prevents the clamp from slipping
Hardened, smooth-running spindle with ACME thread = more clamping with less cranking
