60060 - Piher Maxipress F Heavy Duty Welding Clamp 24-Inch 900kg

The Ultimate Welding Clamp

Welders know that the biggest enemy of standard clamps is spatter. Exposed threads act like magnets for molten metal, and once a BB fuses to the screw, the clamp is often ruined. The Piher Maxipress F 24" Clamp (60060) solves this age-old problem with its fully encapsulated screw design. By hiding the thread mechanism inside a protective housing, Piher has created a clamp that is virtually immune to welding spatter, ensuring smooth operation even after years of use in heavy fabrication environments.

Beyond durability, the Maxipress F offers superior fit-up control. Traditional clamps often impart a twisting motion to the workpiece as the screw tightens, causing parts to shift out of square just as you are ready to tack. The Maxipress utilizes a piston-style compression pad that moves linearly—straight down—without rotating. This means your parts stay exactly where you positioned them, ensuring precise alignment and reducing the frustration of constant readjustment. With a massive 900 kg (1980 lbs) of clamping pressure, you can pull stubborn plates into alignment and hold them securely for the duration of the weld.

The clamp features a generous 24-inch opening capacity and a 12cm (approx. 5-inch) throat depth, making it versatile enough for a wide range of fabrication tasks, from jigging up frames to securing heavy pipe. The handle is designed for comfort and torque, allowing you to apply maximum pressure with minimal strain on your wrist. The grooved pressure pad ensures a solid grip on both flat and round stock, preventing slippage under load.

Invest in tools that work as hard as you do. The Piher Maxipress F is not just another clamp; it is a dedicated welding tool engineered to improve your efficiency, protect against shop hazards, and deliver professional results on every job.
