Bessey TW16-20-10K Welding Table Bar Clamp 8in

Product Description

The BESSEY TW16-20-10K is a sliding arm bar clamp engineered for use with welding tables and fixture setups. It delivers 650 lb of clamping pressure through a forged steel T-handle and a high carbon steel spindle measuring 5/8 inches in diameter. The steel frame carries an electrogalvanized finish that resists corrosion in shop environments. At 4 inches of throat depth and an 8-inch maximum capacity, this clamp handles a wide range of stock thicknesses and part geometries. Welders, fabricators, and metalworking tradespeople are the primary installers of this clamp in professional shop or on-site fixture work.

The TW16-20-10K is designed for welding table rail systems using a 7/8 inch by 3/8 inch rail profile with an 8-inch rail length. It fits into the Series TW-K product family and is suited for fixturing metal workpieces during tack welding, layout, and assembly operations. The sliding arm design allows fast repositioning along the rail without removing the clamp from the table, making it practical for high-repetition fabrication work. Standard steel pads provide firm, direct contact on metal surfaces.

Key Features

• 650 lb clamping pressure for secure workpiece fixturing during welding operations

Compatibility

Designed for welding table rail systems with a 7/8 inch by 3/8 inch rail profile. Part of the BESSEY Series TW-K sliding arm bar clamp family.

Installation Notes

Install this clamp by sliding the arm onto a compatible welding table rail before positioning the workpiece. Ensure the rail profile matches the 7/8 inch by 3/8 inch specification before mounting. Do not use the clamp as a structural support or load-bearing fixture beyond its rated clamping pressure. Inspect the spindle and pad contact surfaces for wear or damage before each use.
