FAQs

What is the clamping capacity of these clamps?

The clamping thickness is 51mm (2 inches).

What is the purpose of the 360-degree rotation?

The 360-degree rotation allows you to position the clamp pads at any angle to secure your workpiece.

Are replacement pads available?

Yes, replacement pads can be purchased if the originals become damaged or worn.

Can I use these clamps with other brands of jigs?

These clamps are designed specifically for use with the Trend Vari-Jig system and its components.

How do I clean the clamps?

Wipe the clamps with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the material of the clamp body?

The clamp body is made of aluminium.

What is the friction lock design?

The friction lock design enables the clamps to stay securely positioned in the extrusion without sliding when the clamp is lifted.

Troubleshooting

Clamps are slipping in the extrusion.

Ensure the friction lock is engaged. If slippage persists, check for debris in the extrusion channels and clean them. Also, check for damage to the clamp body.

Clamp pads are marring the workpiece.

Check that the soft pads are in place and undamaged. Ensure that you are not over-tightening the clamps.
