Product Information
Full details
This Laser Tools Spring-Loaded Clamp Set is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing reliable temporary fastening for a variety of tasks. The key benefit is its versatile application for holding dust sheets, covers, panels, and in woodworking, offering a secure grip with ease of use. A potential caveat is the specific clamping force, which may not be suitable for heavy-duty industrial applications requiring extreme pressure. This set includes two larger clamps (225mm) with 75mm jaw capacity and 8Kg force, and two smaller clamps (150mm) with 50mm jaw capacity and 6Kg force, all constructed from durable fibreglass-strengthened Polypropylene with non-marring pads.

FAQs
What is the maximum material thickness these clamps can hold?
The larger 225mm clamps have a jaw capacity of 75mm, and the smaller 150mm clamps have a jaw capacity of 50mm.
Are these clamps suitable for heavy-duty applications?
These clamps are designed for light to medium-duty temporary fastening. For heavy-duty applications requiring significant force, professional-grade metal clamps may be more appropriate.
Will the clamps damage the material being held?
No, the clamps are equipped with non-marring Polypropylene pads designed to protect surfaces from scratches and damage.
How much clamping force do the clamps provide?
The larger 225mm clamps provide approximately 8Kg of clamping force each, and the smaller 150mm clamps provide approximately 6Kg of clamping force each.
What material are the clamps made from?
The clamps are manufactured from fibreglass-strengthened Polypropylene.
How do I clean the clamps?
Wipe the clamps with a damp cloth after use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Can I use these clamps outdoors?
While they are durable, it is recommended to store them in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan and prevent potential corrosion or degradation from prolonged exposure to elements.
Troubleshooting
Clamp not holding firmly
Ensure the material thickness is within the jaw capacity (75mm for larger, 50mm for smaller clamps). Check that the clamping pads are clean and making full contact with the surface. Verify the spring mechanism is not obstructed.
Jaws are difficult to open
Check for any debris or obstructions caught within the clamping mechanism. Gently flex the handles to help dislodge any foreign material. Ensure the clamp is not being used on material exceeding its capacity.
Clamping pads are damaged
If clamping pads are cracked or missing, the clamp should be replaced to avoid damaging surfaces or reducing grip effectiveness.
