Overview:

Heavy Metal G-Clamp range VC22 50mm is a tough, dependable clamping solution for workshop, site and fabrication tasks. Manufactured with a heavy duty cast iron frame and a fine thread screw, it provides controlled tightening and a secure hold for assembly, drilling, gluing and general fitting work. A tommy bar handle makes it easy to apply pressure, while the swivel shoe and ball-and-socket head improve contact on uneven or irregular surfaces. The copper-plated thread helps prevent weld spatter from sticking, making it a useful option for metalworking and welding environments.

Heavy Metal G-Clamp VC22 – Key FAQs

• What size is the VC22 clamp?
  The VC22 option has a 50mm (2") clamping capacity, making it ideal for smaller holding and positioning jobs.

• What’s the benefit of the fine thread screw?
  A fine thread gives smoother, more controlled tightening, so you can apply steady pressure without over-crushing the workpiece.

• How does the swivel shoe help?
  The swivel shoe self-adjusts to the surface, improving grip and helping the clamp sit properly on flat or slightly uneven materials.

• What is the ball-and-socket head for?
  It allows the shoe to align naturally as you tighten, maximising contact on uneven surfaces and reducing the chance of slipping.

• Is it suitable for welding and fabrication work?
  Yes, it’s suitable for holding parts during welding and fabrication, and the thread finish helps reduce spatter build-up.
