A locking clamp from the Original line is a familiar tool for holding metal while it is welded or joined. The listing is thin: the uses field is blank, the warranty is only named manufacturer and the dimensions entry looks like a placeholder.

Who it's for

Fabrication benches, welding tables and repair jobs benefit from a clamp that holds metal pieces in alignment. Users after gripping pliers for fasteners should buy a plier pattern.
