Designed to operate with pneumatic pressure, the patented wedge drive moves in a longitudinal direction when pneumatic pressure is applied to the piston. The resulting transverse movement presses the contact sections with high supporting forces against the free surface of the guide rail.

The MKS is the classic MK clamping element with spring force that engages during power interruptions. Designed to operate with spring power, no air requirement excellent for power interrupt applications. The patented wedge drive moves in a longitudinal direction when pneumatic pressure is applied to the piston. The resulting transverse movement presses the contact sections with high supporting forces against the free surface of the guide rail. Additional holding force can be obtained by using the PLUS Connection.
