Mitee-bite 60150 Single T-slot Machinable Wedge Clamp

Product Description

The MITEE-BITE 60150 is a single-style machinable wedge clamp designed for T-slot workholding applications on milling machines, machining centers, and CNC fixtures. It delivers 3,500 pounds of holding force at 28.3 foot-pounds of torque, making it suited for aggressive cutting operations where workpiece movement cannot be tolerated. The base measures 3 inches wide by 1.215 inches deep by 1.5 inches high. Clamping force spreads uniformly across the workpiece contact surface, and a unique locking plate is included to prevent the screw from backing out during machining. The 1/2-13 screw thread is a common size found in most machine shops.

This clamp is used in production and job-shop machining environments where T-slot tables require a reliable, low-profile workholding solution. It is machinable, so the body can be modified to suit custom fixture layouts or part geometries. Typical installers include machinists and tooling setup technicians working with vertical machining centers, knee mills, and manual mills. The clamp ships as a single unit with the locking plate and mounting screw included, making it ready for immediate use in fixturing setups.

Key Features

• Machinable body allows modification for custom fixture applications
• Clamping force spreads uniformly across the contact surface
• Unique locking plate prevents screw back-out during machining operations
• Includes locking plate and mounting screw — no additional hardware required
• 1/2-13 screw thread is a standard size compatible with common T-slot hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style workholding component for use in standard T-slot fixtures on milling machines and machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is stopped and the table is stationary before positioning or adjusting the clamp. Torque the 1/2-13 mounting screw to achieve the rated holding force — a calibrated torque wrench is recommended. Do not exceed the rated torque value, as over-torquing can damage the locking plate or distort the clamp body.
