UP165 - Strong Hand Tools UP165 Heavy Duty Utility Clamp, 16.5-Inch Capacity

Heavy-Duty Clamping Solution for Industrial Applications

The Strong Hand Tools UP165 Utility Clamp is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of professional fabrication and industrial maintenance. Built with heavy-duty steel, this clamp provides a robust solution for securing workpieces with confidence. Unlike traditional clamping methods that can be slow and cumbersome, the UP165 utilizes a sliding arm mechanism that allows for rapid adjustment and locking. This design enables the clamp to set up approximately 10 times faster than a standard C-clamp, significantly reducing downtime during project setup and adjustment phases.

With a substantial clamping pressure of 4,800 lbs, the UP165 is capable of holding heavy materials securely in place, ensuring precision and safety during welding, machining, or assembly tasks. The clamp features a generous 16-1/2 inch opening capacity, making it versatile enough to handle a wide range of material sizes. The 7-inch throat depth provides ample reach, allowing users to clamp further in from the edge of the workpiece, which is essential for larger assemblies where edge clamping is insufficient.

Versatility is a core component of the UP165's design. The clamp arm is both removable and reversible, a feature that transforms the tool's functionality to suit specific job requirements. Whether you need to reverse the arm for a spreading application or remove it entirely to fit into a tight space, this utility clamp adapts to the situation. Additionally, the inclusion of a 3/8-16 tapped hole allows for the attachment of various accessories, further expanding its utility in complex setups. For professionals seeking a reliable, high-pressure clamping tool that enhances productivity, the Strong Hand Tools UP165 is an indispensable addition to the workshop.
