Set of 6 - Heavy Duty 6-Inch Steel Spring Clamp with PVC Grip

There's about 1.8 inch depth in the clamping area, they open to about 3" effective bite. Spring strength is about right for laminating. Get a bunch of them. These clamps are stamped from sheet metal. They look kinda cheap, but work as good or better than the American 2-4$ Hardware store variety. They are far superior to the curvy plastic kind that cost around the same price.

These clamps look nothing like the picture. These clamps have a straight profile whereas the clamps pictured have an arched profile. This means that the clamps open to only 2 and 1/4 inches. If you are clamping two small boards together they will do the job. If you are looking for 2 and 3/4 to 3 inch jaw openings look elsewhere. I have given the 1 star rating due to the fact that the pictured clamps, and what I received are totally different.Update: Well I am glad that they changed the picture to what the clamps really look like. All of the plastic coverings have come off the clamps at the time of this update. I really did not expect a lot from the clamps, and my rating would have been around three stars, but with the picture being wrong and the jaw opening size being incorrectly stated at the time of my original purchase. 0ne star is about the right rating.

They do what they need too. I had purchased another set of pretty much the exact same things (6in Heavy Spring Clamps) from another manufacturer and they had a much stronger clamping grip but these do the job. Really good for gluing or joining parts together.

I bought these to hold our pet food bags closed. I know, it sounds a little weird, but we were trying to use cloths pins and they were just too small. We have multiple cats, a big dog and about 200 humming birds to feed so we buy in bulk. to get the bags to stay closed you need some serious holding power and these clamps do the trick.

I use these clamps when it comes to the bigger jobs. They work great and hold items very well. I even have attached then to shelving to hold up screens and dividers.

Very little spring pressure! I have some that look just like this and will HURT you if you clamp it on your finger! These LOOK THE SAME BUT ARE NOT!!! The spring pressure is harder the further you open them but if you are clamping thin piece of metal or wood it doesn't have enough pressure to adequately hold the piece down. I do not recommend these, its back to lowes where they are more expensive but I guess you get what you pay for!

Got what I paid for. Wouldn't call these heavy duty. The 'pvc grip' is just where it was dipped in paint.

These are pretty strong clamps. I haven't used mine for much yet, but they appear sturdy and strong.
