Areas of application

Safety instructions

Clamping tools are designed only for securing objects and should not be used for lifting, pulling, or transporting
Always operate clamping tools manually without additional tools
Misuse can result in injury or material damage
Do not alter or modify clamping tools – use them only in their original condition
If replacement parts are needed, always use original manufacturer-approved components

Material/Finish

Upper and lower sections made of reinforced PA6 plastic with integrated metal inserts for added strength
Cold-drawn, galvanized steel hollow-profile rail for durability
Rolled steel spindle with trapezoidal thread, burnished for smooth operation
Ergonomic two-component plastic handle for a comfortable grip
Cold-pressed, galvanized steel pressure plate for secure clamping
Durable plastic protective caps to prevent surface damage

Care instructions

Regular maintenance is essential to ensure a secure hold and prevent the sliding bracket from slipping
Clean the rails Using a suitable solvent to remove dirt and debris
Keep the rail free of contaminants Such as grease, oil, dried glue, wax, and silicone-based release agents, as these can affect performance
Use a steel brush to clean the fluting on the rails for optimal grip
Regularly clean and oil the spindle to maintain smooth operation and prevent wear
If the lower part slips Adjust the grub screw by turning it 1/4 turn further for a more secure fit
