  • Clamping tools are designed for securing objects only and should not be used for lifting, pulling, or transporting.
  • Always operate clamping tools manually without additional tools.
  • Misuse can result in injury or material damage.
  • Do not alter or modify clamping tools – use them only in their original condition.
  • If replacement parts are needed, always use original manufacturer-approved components.
  • Fixed and sliding jaws made of durable cast iron with a powder-coated finish
  • Rail made of nickel-plated, drawn, and serrated steel for strength and safety
  • Two-piece slip-clutch plates made of metal to keep jaws secure
  • Non-marring plastic pads on top and bottom jaws for added work protection
  • Handles made of solid wood for a traditional, ergonomic grip
  • Regular maintenance is essential to ensure a secure hold and prevent the sliding arm from slipping.
  • Clean the rails using a suitable solvent to remove dirt and debris.
  • Keep the rail free of contaminants such as grease, oil, dried glue, wax, and silicone-based release agents, as these can affect performance.
  • Use a steel brush to clean the rails for optimal grip.
  • Regularly clean and oil the spindle to maintain smooth operation and prevent wear.
