| Irwin® Quick-Grip® SL300 Clamps |
A new and improved version of the original Quick-Grip — one of Irwin’s
best-selling clamps! Since not every workpiece has perfectly even edges, the
SL300 adds a swivel jaw that conforms to angled surfaces and combats the
inevitable flexing that occurs with resin clamps. It also features a
spring-loaded, quick-change screw that makes it easy to reverse the smaller
end-piece and transform the clamp to its other function — a
high-performance spreader. The screw also eliminates rattle in the end jaw. A
heavy-duty I-Beam Bar allows you to apply 300 lbs. of clamping pressure
with minimal bending and flexing. All these improvements come without any
added weight, so the clamp retains its chief benefit: simple one-handed
operation.
