Fischer Beam Clamp TKL Series
The easy fixing solution without welding and drilling for steel girders.
Overview
The Fischer Beam Clamp TKL series provides a versatile and efficient method for fixing pipes, conduits, and other components directly to steel girders. These clamps eliminate the need for welding or drilling, offering a quick and secure installation process. The series includes standard TKL, hot-dip galvanized TKL hdg, and stainless steel TKL A4 variants, suitable for various environmental conditions.

Applications
- Simple fixing by clamping directly to steel girders.
- Retaining straps SS-TKL are required for VdS equipment over Ø 65 mm.
- Suitable for dry interior areas (standard TKL).
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications, and in environments with high stress to components due to corrosion (TKL hdg and TKL A4).
Advantages
- No Welding or Drilling: The TKL design utilizes a clamping screw for secure attachment to steel girders, eliminating the need for additional fabrication steps.
- Secure Clamping: The design of the clamping screw prevents it from slipping from the steel girder.
- Certified Safety: VdS, FM, and UL certificates guarantee independently tested safety and reliability.
- High Load Capacity: The solid TKL design ensures a high load-bearing capacity for demanding applications.
- Quick Installation: The thread mount design facilitates quick and easy installation.
- Height Adjustment: The through-hole feature allows for height adjustment after the initial installation.

Installation Guide
The installation process is designed for simplicity:
- Position the beam clamp onto the steel girder.
- Insert the clamping bolt through the designated hole.
- Rotate the clamp assembly approximately 180 degrees to engage the girder flange.
- Tighten the clamping screw securely.
- Height adjustment can be made using the through-hole if necessary.
