Mitee-bite 10201 Symmetrical Hex Clamp 13/16 in Brass 12 Pack

Product Description

The MITEE-BITE 10201 is a symmetrical hex clamp designed for precision workholding applications in machining and fabrication environments. The hex body is machined from brass and measures 13/16 inches across. A hardened steel stud with a 5/16-18 thread engages the workpiece with a holding force of 800 pounds. The thread length measures 15/32 inches (0.4688 inches), and the hex height is 3/16 inches (0.1800 inches). Specified torque is 8.3 ft/lb. This package contains 12 clamps. Installation is performed by machinists and toolroom technicians working with T-slot tables, fixtures, and low-profile clamping setups.

The 10201 hex clamp is suited for use in machine shop environments where low-profile, symmetrical clamping is required. The symmetrical hex geometry allows the clamp to seat consistently regardless of rotational orientation, which is useful in high-repeatability fixturing. Typical applications include milling fixture plates, modular tooling setups, and any workholding scenario where conventional strap clamps cannot fit due to clearance constraints. The brass hex body minimizes the risk of marring finished workpiece surfaces during clamping operations.

Key Features

• Symmetrical hex geometry allows consistent seating in any rotational orientation
• 800-pound holding force per clamp for secure workpiece retention
• Brass hex head resists marring on finished or soft workpiece surfaces
• Hardened steel stud provides durability under repeated clamping cycles
• Low-profile hex height of 0.1800 inches suits tight-clearance fixturing
• Package of 12 clamps supports multi-point fixturing setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard T-slot fixture plates and modular workholding systems that accept a 5/16-18 stud thread. Verify T-slot dimensions and thread engagement depth before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out any machine tool before adjusting or repositioning clamps on a fixture plate. Use a calibrated torque wrench to achieve the specified 8.3 ft/lb torque value stated by the manufacturer. Do not exceed the rated holding force by over-torquing the stud, as this can damage the brass hex body or the fixture plate threads.
