The Vario clamping bolt (Ø 16 mm) provides you with a height-adjustable clamping point for any perforated table with 16-mm holes (for material thicknesses of 4 mm or more, especially for metal). Using the adjustment ring, you can set the clamping height continuously from 0 to 36 mm and read it directly from the laser-etched scale —this allows the bolt to adapt to workpieces of varying thicknesses without the need for shims. The centering bolt and adjustment ring are made of phosphated steel; the clamping bolt is black-oxide finished.

Here's how to use it

  • Custom clamping: Rotate the ring to the workpiece height, insert the bolt into the hole—the pressure point is precisely positioned, and the part lies flat for tack welding.
  • Reproducible adjustment: The scale makes every height repeatable—the next time you make the same part, just turn it to the same value.
  • Functioning as a stop: In welding and assembly fixtures, the bolt also defines lateral reference points.

Does this go with your table?

When ordering, choose the mounting option: S with a screw (78 mm overall height) stays securely in place once adjusted; K with clamping lever (109 mm) loosens and shifts tool-free when the position changes frequently. Multiple bolts are available in Set 1 (8 pieces) or Set 2, which includes clamps and an organization panel; the overview shows the clamps, vertical and horizontal toggle clamps.
