Description
Overview:
The C H Hanson Manual Locking Sheet Metal Clamp, model 70800, is a robust hand tool for holding and shaping sheet materials. Made from high‐grade alloy steel with a nickel‐plated, silver finish, it offers high strength and dependable corrosion resistance for site and workshop use. Its flat, wide jaws apply even pressure across panels to help prevent marks while you bend, form, crimp, or align sheets. The locking action frees your hands for accurate positioning and joining. An adjustable screw sets the jaw opening and clamping force to suit different material thicknesses, while a traditional release lever makes removal quick and controlled. With an 8 in (approx. 203 mm) length, this clamp is a practical size for fabrication, automotive, HVAC ducting, and general metalwork tasks.
