Bar clamp Art-Pol 80 x 250 mm model 24112, metal bar and adjustable jaw

The Art-Pol bar clamp model 24112 is a handheld clamping tool with an 80 mm clamping width and 250 mm throat depth designed for temporary holding of workpieces during gluing, assembly and light woodworking. It has a metal bar, an adjustable jaw and a screw mechanism that allows controlled and even pressure across the clamped surface. The clamp is intended for workshop and DIY tasks where steady, repeatable clamping is required.

Advantages

The metal bar construction provides rigidity and straightness under load, while the adjustable jaw offers quick positioning along the 250 mm throat. The screw mechanism enables fine pressure control without sudden release, and the compact dimensions make the clamp easy to handle and store. Materials and design are chosen to deliver consistent clamping force for common woodworking and assembly operations.

Suitable for

• Gluing and edge-joining of boards and panels
• Temporary holding during assembly of furniture and frames
• Workshop and DIY repairs that require steady clamping
• Light carpentry and craft projects

Key specifications

• Clamping width: 80 mm
• Throat depth: 250 mm
• Bar material: metal
• Adjustable jaw with screw pressure mechanism
• Handheld size suitable for one-person operation

How to use

Position the clamp so that the workpieces sit between the fixed head and the adjustable jaw. Slide the adjustable jaw along the metal bar to bring it close to the pieces, then rotate the screw mechanism to apply pressure until the workpieces are held firmly and aligned. Check alignment and even pressure across the joint before the adhesive cures or before proceeding with further assembly steps. To release, turn the screw counterclockwise and slide the jaw away from the workpiece.

Usage recommendations

Use protective pads on the clamp faces when working with soft or finished surfaces to prevent marring. Apply only the necessary clamping pressure to avoid distorting thin panels or squeezing out excessive glue. Store the clamp in a dry place to prevent corrosion of metal parts.
