The Bessey KliKlamp KLI 160/80 is designed for woodworkers, DIY enthusiasts, and professionals who require a lightweight yet strong clamping solution for assembly or repetitive tasks. Its primary benefit is rapid, secure clamping with minimal effort, thanks to the VIBRAFIX ratchet mechanism. A potential caveat is that while extremely light, the clamp's specific clamping capacity may be limited for very heavy-duty industrial applications compared to larger, heavier clamps.

The specific maximum jaw opening and clamping force can vary slightly based on model specifications, but the KliKlamp series is designed for effective clamping suitable for most assembly and woodworking tasks. Refer to the product's technical specifications for precise measurements.
Wipe the clamp with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid using solvents or abrasive cleaners.
While the clamp is strong, it's primarily designed for woodworking and general assembly. For heavy-duty metalworking requiring extreme forces, a clamp specifically designed for that purpose might be more suitable.
The VIBRAFIX mechanism allows for rapid application of clamping force with minimal effort (just two fingers) and is designed to be vibration-resistant, preventing the clamp from loosening unintentionally.
Yes, the fixed arm features crossed V-grooves specifically designed to provide a secure hold on round, pointed, and angular components.
The fixed and sliding arms are made from sturdy, surface-coated magnesium, combined with fiberglass-reinforced polyamide for the clamping arm.
Ensure the sliding bar and mechanism are clean and free from sawdust or debris. A light application of a dry lubricant (like silicone spray, used sparingly) may help if the issue persists.
Verify that the VIBRAFIX ratchet mechanism is fully engaged. Ensure the clamping surfaces are clean and free of obstructions. If the issue persists, the ratchet mechanism may need professional inspection.
Check that the workpiece is securely seated against the fixed jaw. Ensure the sliding arm is perpendicular to the fixed arm during clamping.
Setup: The KliKlamp is ready for immediate use upon unboxing. No assembly is required. To operate, open the clamp by squeezing the handle, position it onto the workpiece, and release the handle to apply light pressure. Squeeze the lever repeatedly to increase clamping force up to the maximum capacity. To release, pull the lever outwards.
Compatibility: This clamp is designed for general woodworking and assembly tasks. It is compatible with most standard wood and composite materials. The V-grooves are designed to securely hold round, angular, and pointed components.
Care: To maintain performance and longevity:
