Secure, slip holding: the flat four double rocker mechanism applies a deadclamping action to lock work pieces firmly in place so the clamp does not slip during machining, welding or assembly. Positive, repeatable clamping force: the fourdoublerocker structural mechanics principle produces consistent, repeatable locking force for reliable positioning and reduced rework. Comfortable, durable operation: oil and stainresistant red plastic cover on the handle provides a safe, comfortable grip and resists contamination from machining fluids and grease. Controlled lever action to protect parts: the lever is engineered to control side thrust during engagement, preventing impact that could disturb the work piece or impair clamp function. Key features and performance Mechanism: flat four double rocker mechanism using a deadclamping principle for a rigid, locked hold. Handle: red plastic cover is oil and stainresistant for safer, cleaner handling. Function: provides a secure, nonslip hold with minimized side thrust and consistent clamping force. Reliability: designed to maintain clamp performance under repeated use and in environments with oils or stains on the handle. Compatibility and uses Designed for use with jigs, fixtures and workholding setups where a rigid, nonslip clamp is required. Works well in metalworking and machining operations, fabrication and welding stations, and assembly or inspection benches that require stable positioning. Typical applications Machining and milling: keep a part locked in place during drilling, milling or CNC operations to prevent movement and improve dimensional accuracy. Welding and fabrication: hold components securely during tack and final welding to maintain joint alignment and reduce distortion. Assembly and inspection: stabilize parts for precise assembly work or measurement tasks where any slip would compromise quality. Usage note Mount and align the clamp per your fixture layout so the deadclamping action provides full contact and the lever can operate without obstruction.
