Piher Maxipress R Style 6" x24" max pressure 1,000kg

The Ultimate Welding Clamp: Piher Maxipress R

For professional welders and fabricators, the Piher Maxipress R 24" F-Clamp is an essential tool for securing heavy steel components. Standard clamps often fail in welding environments because spatter adheres to the exposed threads, seizing the mechanism and rendering the tool useless. The Maxipress R solves this problem with its fully protected screw design. The threaded mechanism is completely encased, shielding it from hot sparks, spatter, and grinding dust. This ensures that the clamp remains smooth and functional job after job, even in the harshest fabrication shops.

With a clamping capacity of 24 inches and a deep 6.3-inch throat, this tool provides the reach and versatility needed for large structural fit-ups. The 2200 lbs (1000 kg) of pressure allows you to pull stubborn plates into alignment and hold them rigid while you tack and weld. The clamp's bar is made from high-quality steel sized at 40mm x 10mm, providing the backbone needed to withstand thermal expansion and contraction forces during the welding process.

Ergonomics are key during long shifts, and the Piher Maxipress R delivers with its articulated handle. This feature allows you to fold the handle out of the way of your welding torch or grind path, and it provides excellent leverage for tightening without straining your wrist. The grooved surface on the fixed jaw ensures a solid grip on round pipes and flat stock alike. Invest in a clamp that works as hard as you do.
