Bessey KR3.512 12-inch K Body REVO Fixed Jaw Parallel Clamp, 2-Pack

by Bessey

Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The new K Body REVO clamp range from BESSEY offers some 30% more clamping force, and newly-designed pressure caps and work-piece contact elements also protect the work-piece exceptionally well. The Vario K Body REVO clamp enables the head to be adjusted at the press of a button. The new K Body REVO clamp from BESSEY achieves a powerful 7,000 N clamping force – some 2,000 N more than usual. In addition, the jaw face has been increased by 30%. Three removable and glue-repellent pressure caps guarantee work piece protection. Adjustable work piece contact elements prevent direct contact between the work piece and the serrated steel rail under full utilization of the jaw face. The tilting K Body clamp adapter (available separately) KR-AS which is easily pushed on to the clamping jaws enables clamping requirements outside of the 90° range to be fulfilled. The tilting adapter adjusts to the work piece, regardless of whether fitted in a v-shape or at a slanted parallel. The additional module is infinitely tilt-able within a range of 30°. 12 " K Body REVO, 1,500 lb clamping force, 3 3/4" Throat depth, 3 removable jaw pads, 2 component ergonomic handle, removable material protector pads, removable end stop, can be attached to a work bench using Bessey TK-6 clamps

Product Description

These 12" fixed jaw parallel clamps feature a large, flat parallel clamping surface made of impact and break resistant polyamide that comes with three replaceable pressure caps that are glue, paint and grease resistant. The internal frame ensures accurate 90-degree angles which are very sturdy even at maximum pressures. A large, comfortable two-component composite handle with a soft plastic insert makes a comfortable grip. Rail protection pieces made of same glue resistant polyamide elevate the workpiece from the rail, and the removable end rail clip ensures that the clamp sits parallel to the rail and can easily be removed to reverse sliding arm for use as a spreader.

This review is from: Bessey KR3.512 12-inch K Body REVO Fixed Jaw Parallel Clamp, 2-Pack (Tools & Home Improvement)

These are great clamps as are all the Bessey parallel line. What I like about the newer REVO series is that they have larger jaws for increased clamping coverage over the older K-BODY series. They also come with two protective edge pads (that's those two black objects seen pictured between the jaws) that will protect your piece from possible damage caused when tightening the clamps. I've had this problem in the past with my older K-BODY clamps. These edge pads will also fit on the older K-BODY series, so inter-changing is a neat feature. Finally the packaging was super. When you read the other horror reviews about clamps arriving damaged due to poor packaging, it was such a relief to see these 12" clamps arrive in their original & sturdy Bessey carton--no problems at all! I wish all the clamps were shipped this way. I've had the opposite results with the 82" version a few months ago. But not to worry--Amazon will correct(I should add immediately correct) any issues you may have. 2-day free shipping was a cherry topping to this transaction.
