Description
The Irwin Vise-Grip 11″ Locking C-Clamp w/Swivel Pad (20) is a high-performance tool engineered for professionals who demand precision, strength, and versatility. This C-Clamp is designed to provide a secure, non-damaging hold on a wide array of materials, including delicate and irregularly shaped workpieces. From metal fabrication to woodworking and carpentry, its unique swivel pads conform to various surfaces, ensuring a firm grip without leaving marks or indentations. The classic trigger release allows for easy, one-handed operation, while the adjustable pressure screw gives you complete control over the clamping force. Built from high-grade, heat-treated alloy steel, the 11SP is a testament to IRWIN’s commitment to quality and is a reliable addition to any professional’s toolkit.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Swivel Pads: The non-marring swivel pads conform to uneven, angled, or tapered surfaces. This protects delicate workpieces from damage and allows for a secure grip on challenging shapes, providing greater flexibility in your projects.
- Classic Trigger Release: The well-known Vise-Grip trigger release mechanism provides maximum locking force with a simple and quick release action. This allows for easy, one-handed use, saving time and reducing hand fatigue.
- Adjustable Clamping Pressure: A turn screw adjusts the pressure of the clamp jaws, allowing you to fine-tune the clamping force for different materials. Once set, the pressure remains consistent for repetitive tasks, ensuring efficiency and accuracy.
- High-Grade Construction: Made from heat-treated alloy steel, this tool is built for maximum toughness and durability. The nickel-plated finish resists rust and corrosion, ensuring a long lifespan even in demanding work environments.
SPECIFICATIONS:
- Overall Length: 11 inches (279.4 mm)
- Jaw Capacity: 3-3/8 inches (85.7 mm)
- Throat Depth: 2-5/8 inches
- Material: High-grade, heat-treated alloy steel
HOW TO USE:
- Adjust the Clamping Pressure: Before placing the clamp on your workpiece, turn the adjustment screw at the base of the handle. Turn clockwise to increase the jaw pressure or counter-clockwise to decrease it. This pre-setting ensures the correct clamping force for your specific material.
- Position the Clamp: Open the clamp jaws and place the swivel pads on the workpiece, ensuring they are positioned securely on the surfaces you wish to hold. The swivel pads will automatically adapt to the shape of the material.
- Lock the Clamp: Squeeze the handles together until the jaws are locked in place. You will feel and hear a distinct “click” when the locking mechanism is engaged.
- Release the Clamp: To release the clamp, simply press the trigger on the handle. The jaws will spring open, freeing your workpiece.
