Description
Silverline Tools Heavy Metal G-Clamp – 150mm
MPN: VC26 | Barcode: 5024763015489
This 150mm metal G-clamp secures smaller workpieces with steady pressure. Its rigid frame suits woodworking, metalworking, or tasks requiring stability. The compact size offers straightforward handling in limited spaces while maintaining grip strength.
Who This Product Is For
This G-clamp is suited for woodworkers, metalworkers, and crafters who need to secure smaller workpieces during assembly, gluing, or fabrication tasks. It works well for hobbyists and those working in home workshops where space may be limited.
The clamp handles projects involving small furniture joints, thin metal sheets, or craft items like model-making and picture framing that require stable positioning during work.
Features
- Swivel base: Adjusts to uneven surfaces for consistent pressure distribution.
- Copper-plated thread: Minimises debris build-up during repeated adjustments.
- Reinforced frame: Handles sustained pressure without flexing.
- Non-slip pads: Protect delicate surfaces from marks during clamping.
Uses
- Securing small furniture joints during glue drying.
- Holding thin metal sheets in place for welding.
- Stabilising craft projects like model-making or picture framing.
How This Fits Into a Typical Job
In a typical clamping task, this G-clamp is positioned after workpieces have been aligned and before adhesive application or joining work begins. It maintains pressure during glue setting, welding, or assembly operations where movement must be prevented.
The clamp remains in place throughout the drying or fixing process, then is removed once the joint or assembly has stabilised. Its compact design allows use in confined areas where larger clamps might not fit.
How to Use
- Positioning: Place the clamp jaws on either side of the workpiece.
- Adjustment: Turn the screw until the jaws make contact.
- Tightening: Apply pressure gradually until secure.
- Release: Loosen the screw counter-clockwise to remove.
Storage and Maintenance
- Wipe metal parts with a dry cloth after use.
- Keep the screw thread lightly oiled for smooth operation.
