Bessey 2400S-8 Heavy Duty F-style Welding Clamp 8x5.5in

Product Description

The BESSEY 2400S-8 is a heavy duty F-style welding clamp designed for metal fabrication and structural welding work. It delivers up to 2800 pounds of clamping force through a patented rail profile that generates greater force with fewer spindle turns than conventional F-clamps. The MorPad jaw tilts up to 35 degrees to accommodate angled workpieces, and the high-carbon Acme threaded screw is spatter resistant and tempered for extended service life at full rated capacity. An ergonomic grip reduces hand fatigue during repeated use. This clamp is built for trades and fabricators who work at capacity, not around it.

The 2400S-8 is suited for welding shops, steel fabrication facilities, and job sites where metal components must be held securely during tack welding, full weld passes, or assembly. The 8-inch throat depth and 5.5-inch jaw opening accommodate a wide range of structural and sheet metal configurations. Its spatter-resistant finish and patented construction make it a reliable tool in high-heat, high-debris welding environments where lighter clamps fail prematurely.

Key Features

• Rated clamping force of 2800 pounds for heavy fabrication work
• Patented rail profile delivers more clamping force with fewer spindle turns
• MorPad jaw tilts up to 35 degrees to grip angled or irregular surfaces
• High-carbon Acme threaded screw is spatter resistant and tempered for greater load capacity
• Ergonomic grip reduces operator fatigue during extended use
• Patented construction extends clamp life when operated at full rated capacity

Compatibility

Designed for use as a general-purpose heavy duty F-style welding clamp in metal fabrication and structural welding applications.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this clamp typically falls to welders, fabricators, and ironworkers in shop or field environments. Inspect the screw, rail, and MorPad for wear or spatter buildup before each use. Do not exceed the rated clamping force of 2800 pounds, as over-torquing the spindle can damage the threaded screw and reduce service life. Always position the clamp so clamping force is applied perpendicular to the joint when possible to ensure full load transfer.
