Bench clamps secure workpieces to tables or benches during cutting, drilling, or assembly. They provide stable holding power that allows precise operations without movement or slippage.
Adjustable jaw openings accommodate various material thicknesses
Non-marring pads protect finished surfaces from clamp marks
Quick-release mechanisms speed up workflow between operations
Add reliable bench clamps to your tool collection.
FAQs
Most bench clamps handle wood, metal, plastic, and composite materials. Jaw pad materials and pressure ratings determine suitability for specific surfaces.
Force varies by model, typically ranging from 100 to 600 pounds. Choose clamps rated for your heaviest expected workpieces and operations.
Bench clamps mount directly to work surfaces with built-in clamps or bolts. C-clamps require separate mounting and are generally more portable.
Select throat depth based on your typical workpiece distance from the bench edge. Deeper throats reach further onto larger materials.
Some models include heat-resistant pads and grounding options for welding. Standard clamps may be damaged by welding spatter or current.
