REGULARS - PRODUCTS CLAMPING DOWN Bessey has expanded its TW16AW adapter range to use its clamping elements on all common workbenches with a hole system. In addition to the workbench adapter for a hole diameter of 19mm, adapters for three additional hole diameters are also now available in the range. The TW16AW19 workbench adapter has been on the market since 2016. It enables the use of Bessey clamping elements of the TW16 and TWV16 series on workbenches with a hole diameter of 19mm. Bessey also provides adapters for three more workbench hole systems for diameters of 20mm, 25.4mm and 30mm. In the design of solutions for accurate clamping on benches, Bessey has successfully applied its extensive experience as a global market leader in clamping tools. Characteristic of all models and handle variants is the sliding arm for elastic, sprung clamping, as well as the annealed profile. Like the spindle, it is processed in tried-and-tested Bessey quality steel. This guarantees a dimensionally stable and low-torsion clamping tool, which also exhibits an extremely long service life on the work bench for daily use.
