Mitee-bite 10506 Cam Action Clamp 2000 Lb Steel

Product Description

The MITEE-BITE 10506 is a cam action clamp designed for secure, repeatable workholding in machining and fixturing applications. Built from steel, this clamp delivers 2000 lb of clamping force from a compact, low-profile body that measures 1.23 inches wide and 0.35 inches tall. The flat edge design allows the clamp to seat flush against a workpiece edge, making it well suited for tight setups where vertical clearance is limited. Machinists and tool and die professionals install these clamps directly into T-slots or fixture plates using a 3/8-16 stud thread. Each package contains 4 clamps, allowing multiple clamping points to be set up in a single order.

The 10506 is used in precision machining environments where conventional strap clamps cannot fit due to height restrictions. The low-profile, flat-edge geometry makes these clamps a practical choice for CNC milling fixtures, tombstone setups, and custom workholding plates in both job shop and production environments. The 3/8-16 stud thread is a widely used size that accommodates standard fixture hardware found in most machine shops.

Key Features

• 2000 lb clamping force in a low-profile steel body
• Flat edge design seats flush against workpiece for repeatable positioning
• Low-profile height of 0.35 inches clears most cutting tool paths
• 3/8-16 stud thread compatible with standard fixture hardware
• Steel construction for durability in metal-cutting environments
• Sold in a package of 4 clamps

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for T-slot fixture plates and workholding systems that accept 3/8-16 studded cam action clamps.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or tooling technicians. Ensure the machine spindle is stopped and all power is off before adjusting or repositioning clamps on an active fixture. Hand-tighten the stud into the fixture plate or T-slot nut before applying final torque with appropriate fixturing wrenches. Verify clamping force is distributed evenly across all contact points before initiating a machining cycle.
