Joint clamps GKP of precision-cast stainless steel have slitted clamping points machined by cutting methods. They are comprised of swivel clamps LKT and LKP.
The clamping point bores are arranged at an angle of 90° and connected by the clamping joint to swivel by ± 90°. They receive typically available rods and tubes with full surface contact over the entire cross-section of the bore.
At the screw points, hex socket cap screws or adjustable hand levers reduce the bore cross-section for clamping.
A hex socket cap screw or an adjustable hand lever at the clamping joint serves for locking the joint axis.
Clamping levers are intended for repeated, tool-free clamping. Under the designation HEK, these are available separately for individual use and in other designs. Compared with the tool-operated hex socket cap screw, the clamping force achievable with a clamping lever is lower due to the shorter clamping lever length.
