Introducing Bessey REVO body clamp
The evolution of the BESSEY body clamp: REVO 2.0 with added power and safety features.
20/09/2018
The Bessey REVO body clamp has been upgraded with even more power and safety features. This tough clamp expands workpieces with fragile surfaces in a powerful yet gentle manner. The range of sophisticated accessories ensures that there is a suitable solution for almost every application.
Powerful and safe:
With up to 8,000 N of clamping force, the new REVO KRE body clamp has a powerful grip thanks to its metal-reinforced plastic housing and optimised sliding arm. The double-slide protection holds the clamp reliably with the set clamping force and prevents any unintentional slipping of the sliding arm when in the unclamped position. In addition, the innovative body clamp design has an ergonomically shaped twin-component plastic grip with an internal hex. This enables you to apply the clamping force in a convenient manner with a maximum tightening torque of 17 Nm.
Precise and gentle:
Like its well-established predecessor, the new REVO KRE body clamp is universally applicable - even behind and at the sides of the profiled rails. This allows you to clamp in locations that conventional screw clamps are unable to reach. They can even get to grips with pointed and rounded surfaces.
Craftsmen enjoy being able to adjust them to the precise setting for corners and stepped edges. The large clamping surfaces, which sit at right angles to the rail, have three removable and glue resistant protective caps. The two detachable work piece supports can be shifted along the rail to elevate fragile wood surfaces from the rail surface. These prevent the grooved steel rail from contacting the workpiece.
Fixed and variable:
The Model KRE clamp comes with clamping widths ranging from 300mm up to 2.5 metres while the KREV version covers clamping widths of over 1 metre. The variable model is equipped with an infinitely adjustable top section that can be shifted at the touch of a button. When positioned in the centre of a workpiece, the weight can be well distributed - especially when an object is clamped for an extended period.
Irrespective of whether you choose the variant with the fixed or variable head, both models are equipped with an end stop that can be removed without the need for tools. As a result, removing the sliding arm from the rail and repositioning it for an extension application is very straightforward.
