Bessey 2400J-12 J-Series Step-Over Bar Clamp 12 Inch

The Bessey 2400J-12 is a 12-inch J-Series step-over bar clamp engineered for welding, fabrication, and metalworking applications where standard clamps can't reach. Its signature return rail design allows the clamp to step over lips on channel iron, angle iron, I-beams, and other structural obstructions — maintaining firm, consistent clamping pressure even on irregular workpieces.

Key Features:

• 12-inch jaw opening with 5-1/2-inch throat depth for versatile clamping range

• 2,660 lbs of clamping pressure for demanding fabrication and welding tasks
• Bessey patented MorPad tilts up to 35° and is replaceable for extended clamp life
• Heat-treated, high-carbon Acme threaded screw — tempered and quenched for greater load capacity and longer service life
• Drop-forged, electro-galvanized sliding arm for added strength and durability
• Rail, fixed jaw, and pressure plate heat-formed in one piece from cold-drawn profiled steel optimized for high static stress loads
• High-strength electro-galvanized sliding pin T-handle with rounded ends for comfort, even when wearing gloves
• Spatter resistant construction for use in welding environments
• Ergonomic grip included as standard equipment
• Nominal rail size: 1-3/16 x 19/32 inches
