Product Information
Full details
This 10-pack of 2" (50mm) plastic spring clamps is ideal for hobbyists, crafters, and DIYers needing a reliable way to secure small to medium-sized items. The key benefit is their strong, consistent grip provided by heavy-duty springs and adjustable jaw pads, ensuring your work stays in place without damage. A potential limitation is their plastic construction, which may not be suitable for extremely heavy-duty or high-temperature applications.

FAQs
What are these clamps best suited for?
They are best suited for light-duty applications in crafting, model making, jewelry making, and general DIY tasks where a secure but non-damaging grip is needed on materials like wood, plastic, paper, and fabric.
What is the maximum material thickness these clamps can hold?
The maximum jaw opening is 35mm, meaning they can effectively clamp materials up to this thickness.
Can these clamps be used for woodworking?
Yes, they are suitable for light woodworking tasks such as holding thin veneers, small components during assembly, or securing pieces while glue dries. They are not intended for heavy-duty clamping.
How should I clean the clamps?
Wipe them clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent any potential issues with the spring.
Are these clamps heat-resistant?
No, these are general-purpose plastic clamps and are not designed for high-temperature applications.
What is the size of each clamp?
Each clamp measures 2 inches (50mm) in length and has a maximum jaw opening of 35mm.
Troubleshooting
Clamp does not grip firmly
Ensure the jaws are clean and free of obstructions. Check that the material being clamped is within the maximum jaw opening (35mm) and not excessively smooth or flexible, which might reduce grip.
Pivoting jaw pad came loose
Gently try to re-seat the jaw pad. If it does not stay attached, the clamp may need replacement.
Plastic appears stressed or cracked
Discontinue use immediately. The clamp may have been used beyond its intended capacity or exposed to excessive force or environmental conditions. Replace the damaged clamp.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These spring clamps require no setup. Simply open the jaws by squeezing the handles and place them onto your materials.
Compatibility: Suitable for use with a wide range of materials including wood, plastic, fabric, paper, and metal for light-duty applications. They are ideal for general workshop, craft room, and DIY projects.
Care: To maintain performance, keep the clamps clean and free of debris, especially around the spring mechanism and jaw pads. Wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth as needed. Avoid exposing them to excessive heat or harsh chemicals, which could degrade the plastic. Store them in a dry place to prevent rust on the spring, though the spring is typically coated for protection.
