Picture this: you're in the middle of a woodworking project, glue spread evenly, but your clamp just won't hold that curved edge without slipping or denting the surface. That's where the Jorgensen 10-Inch Handscrew Clamp steps in, offering a straightforward fix with its fully adjustable jaws made from seasoned hard maple. These jaws conform to broad areas or pinpoint pressure exactly where you need it, protecting delicate finishes while delivering a vice-like hold.
Crafted with straight-grain maple that's individually inspected, finished, and tested, the jaws resist wear and won't mar your work like metal alternatives might. The spindles and nuts? Cold-drawn steel with special double-lead threads for smooth, rapid adjustments and unbeatable durability. At 10 inches, it's the sweet spot for most gluing, assembling, and clamping tasks—whether you're building furniture, cabinets, musical instruments, or even boat parts.
Applying and removing this clamp is a breeze—no fumbling with tricky mechanisms. The handles keep your grip comfortable during long sessions, and the overlapping jaw design tackles shapes steel clamps can't touch. Imagine clamping stair treads securely or holding patterns steady for sanding; it overlaps effortlessly and stays put.
Woodworkers swear by handscrew clamps for their simplicity and reliability. Use it for edge gluing tabletops, assembling chair frames, or securing violin bodies during varnishing. It's not flashy, but it gets the job done right every time, backed by Jorgensen's reputation for quality tools. Pair it with others in the series for bigger projects, and you'll wonder how you managed without that adjustable, forgiving grip. Whether you're a hobbyist or pro, this clamp earns its spot in your toolkit for clean, precise results that last.
