Hand Tools: Stanley 2x4 Clamp
Stanley introduces a new 2” x 4” clamp – model STHT83166 – for professional and consumer use. This innovative design is a versatile alternative to bar and pipe clamps.
Vice President of Innovation Christopher Woolley explains, “Clamps are indispensible tools in the workshop and on the job. They make projects faster and easier by providing a second pair of hands to temporarily hold work securely in place. Choosing the right clamp is particularly important when working with wood since the wrong clamp can provide the required hold but can also put nicks and gouges into expensive wood because the clamping force is concentrated into two small unprotected areas.”
That problem can be eliminated with the new Stanley 2x4 Clamp, a versatile alternative to bar and pipes clamps which also includes several of the most-wanted features such as non-mar pads to help protect work surfaces. This Stanley clamp is light and easy to transport while also providing 400 pounds of clamping force – and up to 850 pounds when bolted to a 2” x 4”.
The 2x4 Clamp works with any 2” x 4” and eliminates the need to carry around bar clamps or pipe clamps. It stands upright on two feet allowing projects to be lifted off the work surface as well as to provide balance. Both clamp heads can be effortlessly inserted and repositioned anywhere along the 2” x 4” and are easily accessible and modified to any length.
