Ten small spring clamps for holding a glued joint closed while it sets. Plastic cement needs pressure and time, and holding a fuselage seam by hand for four minutes is how a seam ends up misaligned.
The jaws are flat and parallel rather than pointed, so they spread their load along a seam instead of denting it in two places. The spring is deliberately light - heavy enough to hold a joint, light enough not to bow a thin part.
Ten because seams are long. Two clamps hold a joint at its ends and let the middle open.
The specification
Everything we know about this item, stated plainly. The same record is printed on the card in the box.
- Fits
- Opens to 25 mm, jaw face 14 mm wide. Closing force approximately 4 N, which holds a styrene seam without bowing sheet down to 0.5 mm.
- Service life
- Several years. The failure mode is the spring taking a set from being stored fully open - keep them closed. The check is the closing force: a clamp that no longer closes firmly onto a 1 mm shim has softened and should be discarded rather than trusted on a seam.
- Composition
- Acetal body with a stainless torsion spring. Jaw faces flat and lightly textured.
- Dimensions
- 62 mm long, jaw face 14 mm, opens to 25 mm
- Weight
- 8 g each; 80 g for the set of ten
- Made
- Moulded and sprung in Taiwan, packed in Georgia.
Fitting & care
- Store them closed, not clipped over the edge of something.
- Put a strip of masking tape under the jaw on a finished surface.
- Wipe cement squeeze-out off the jaw before it sets, or the next part sticks to the clamp.
Cautions
- Not for clamping anything under tension or over a curve that wants to spring back - the force is light by design.
- Not for use with heat or near a soldering iron; acetal deforms well below the temperature that plastic tolerates.
- Not for holding parts while sanding. The grit embeds in the jaw texture and marks the next part.
