These clamps come equiped with swivel pads, this provides evenly distributed clamping pressure that prevents damage to the surface area or to the part itself. The clamps themselves are adjustable with quick release, which means that this mechanism allows the user to open and close the jaws swiftly in a single movement without much hassle.

A C-Clamp is a dedicated clamp which can be used to lock down on a workpiece with a holding force that is virtually immovable under normal conditions. The tools vice grip is released simply by pressing an integrated lever, though it can take a bit of trial and error to dial in the required setting when clamping a new material for the first time. Their durable metal construction makes them especially useful for welding and metalworking applications. They can be used with wood though clamping at full strength is likely to mark or damage the material. Clamps equipped with swivel tips, which these have, will mark sensitive surfaces less than those without.

Small C-Clamps are great for delicate jobs, as they are easier to manoeuvre with smaller items into smaller spaces.
