Bessey STB-24 Sliding Arm Bar Clamp 24 Inch F-style

Product Description

The BESSEY STB-24 is an F-style sliding arm bar clamp built for heavy-duty clamping applications in fabrication, woodworking, and metalworking environments. It delivers 4,880 pounds of clamping pressure through a 0.85-inch high carbon steel spindle, controlled by a forged steel T-handle for firm, consistent grip. The electrogalvanized steel frame resists corrosion in shop environments. With a 24-inch maximum capacity and a 7-inch throat depth, the STB-24 accommodates large workpieces and deep-reach clamping tasks. The sliding arm design allows quick one-handed positioning before final tightening. This clamp is used by ironworkers, pipefitters, carpenters, welders, and general tradespeople who need reliable, repeatable clamping force on the bench or in the field.

The STB-24 fits residential and commercial shop settings where structural assembly, fixture building, or panel glue-ups require consistent clamping pressure across a wide span. The 24-inch rail and 7-inch throat make it suitable for framing jigs, weld fixtures, and cabinet assembly. The included swivel pad with standard rail profile helps distribute clamping load evenly across flat or slightly irregular surfaces. Tradespeople working with steel, hardwood, or composite materials will find the STB-24 appropriate for both bench and in-situ clamping tasks.

Installation Notes

This clamp is installed and operated by tradespeople and shop professionals without special tools beyond hand tightening via the T-handle. Before use, ensure the workpiece is stable and the swivel pad is seated properly to prevent slippage under load. Do not exceed the rated clamping pressure, as overtightening can damage workpieces or the clamp mechanism. Inspect the rail and spindle for wear or damage before each use in high-cycle applications.
