Product Information
Full details
The Vaunt Heavy Duty 300mm Quick-Grip Clamp is designed for woodworkers, carpenters, and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable, one-handed pressure application. Its standout feature is the ability to easily convert from a standard clamp to a spreader, offering exceptional versatility for various assembly and demolition tasks. While it excels at general workshop duties, the 300mm length may be insufficient for larger furniture-building projects requiring wide-span clamping.

Can I use this clamp for metalwork?
This clamp is designed primarily for woodworking and delicate materials; it may not provide enough force or durability for heavy-duty metalworking.
Does this clamp come with a warranty?

How do I switch to spreading mode?

Can I join two clamps together?

Pros and Cons
Pros
- Efficient one-handed operation
- Quick conversion between clamping and spreading modes

- Limited to 300mm clamping capacity

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup requires no additional tools; simply depress the release trigger to slide the jaw along the bar to your desired position. Compatibility is universal for woodworking tasks, provided the workpiece is within the 300mm capacity. To care for your clamp, occasionally wipe the steel bar with a dry cloth to remove sawdust or resin buildup. If the sliding action feels sluggish, a light application of dry silicone spray to the bar can improve the glide; avoid using heavy oils, as these can attract dust and contaminate your woodworking surfaces.
