The built-in adjustment screw allows the user to adjust the jaw opening precisely to the thickness of the workpiece. This function is critically important for precision work where over-tightening or improper clamping could damage the component.
The mechanism, equipped with a quick-release lever and an integrated return spring, significantly speeds up the workflow. The tool can be released with a single motion, allowing the user to immediately reposition the clamp to the next fastening point, minimizing downtime.
The jaws, forged and hardened from chrome-vanadium steel, provide exceptional hardness and wear resistance. The nickel-plated coating not only lends an aesthetic appearance but also provides protection against moisture and corrosion caused by chemicals common in the workshop environment. The 250 mm length ensures an optimal leverage for secure fastening within the 40 mm clamping range.
This fixing clamp is excellently suited for:
Body Repair: Temporary or permanent fixing of components before welding, riveting, or gluing.
Semi-industrial tasks: Stable support for sheets, profiles, and other thick metal materials.
General assembly tasks: Any situation where one hand needs to remain free while the other hand's tool securely holds the workpiece.
