Serrated Adjustable Edge Clamps (Heavy)

Modular Fixturing

Product Information

These low-profile clamps are ideal for securely gripping the side of a workpiece to keep the top clear for machining, especially when a large clamping range is required to accommodate workpiece-size variations. The serrated jaw slides at a 45° angle to exert clamping force both forward and downward simultaneously. Clamp by turning the socket-head screw in the sliding jaw with a hex wrench. Choice of high-nose or low-nose clamping jaw. V-groove in nose is useful for clamping round parts or corners.

The adjustable (slotted) edge clamps shown here are useful for mounting directly on a machine table. The slot is tapered to prevent the clamp from backing off under heavy forces (use two mounting screws on longer clamps). Available in a choice of slot lengths. Made in USA.

The Serrated Adjustable Edge Clamps shown here are for Heavy System MF50 (5/8-11 mounting screws). For our complete selection of Serrated Edge Clamps, see Related Products below.

Serrated Adjustable Edge Clamp in Action

These low-profile clamps are ideal for securely gripping the side of a workpiece to keep the top clear for machining, especially when a large clamping range is required to accommodate workpiece-size variations. The serrated jaw slides at a 45° angle to exert clamping force both forward and downward simultaneously. During this demonstration using the edge clamp, we are able to achieve cutting cast iron dura bar at 600 Surface Feet Per Minute with .16 Inches per Revolution at .045 Depth of Cut.

High-Nose Version

The high-nose version shown here is best for most applications – gripping high on the workpiece, close to the machining plane, to provide maximum clamping rigidity. This version includes a removable aluminum nose cover for clamping soft or machined parts without damage.

Low-Nose Version

The low-nose version shown here is ideal for thin parts and other applications where extra machining clearance is required.
