F-clamp Bessey EZL60-8 60 cm Plastic Steel Black Orange

The Bessey EZL60-8 is a 60 cm one-handed F-clamp combining a plastic housing and steel profiled rail to provide durable, lightweight clamping for woodworking and metalworking tasks. With a length of 600 mm and a weight of approximately 860 g, this clamp features an ergonomic two-component handle, an integrated release mechanism in the grip and a pump lever behind the rail for safe operation from both directions.

Advantages

The clamp offers multiple functions via four available sizes and a wide clamping range, with clamping widths from 110 to 900 mm and clamping forces from 200 N to 2,700 N. Plastic protective caps include a cross prism to secure round, pointed and angular workpieces. Certain sizes (EZM, EZL and EZXL) allow conversion of the top section from clamping to spreading and enable tool-free adjustment using the release mechanism at the touch of a button. The robust design uses fibreglass-reinforced polyamide for top and bottom parts and hardened, tempered, burnished steel for the rails, while the plastic housing protects the grip mechanism from dust and chips.

Suitable for

• Woodworking: gluing, assembly and holding workpieces
• Metalworking: light fixture assembly and temporary clamping during processing
• DIY projects where one-handed operation is preferred
• Situations requiring conversion between clamping and spreading (EZM, EZL, EZXL)

How to use

Position the fixed jaw against one workpiece edge and slide the movable jaw along the rail until it contacts the opposite edge. Use the pump lever on the two-component handle to increase clamping pressure until the pieces are held securely. To release or adjust the sliding bar, press the integrated release handle in the grip; for EZM, EZL and EZXL sizes, use the button-operated release for tool-free conversion between clamping and spreading. Ensure the cross-prism protective caps are correctly oriented to grip round or angled workpieces.

Recommendations

For safe and long-lasting operation, keep the profiled rail clean from chips and heavy contamination; periodically inspect the plastic protective caps and replace them if worn. Select the clamp size appropriate to the required clamping width and force for the task.
