A trapezoidal-thread clamping screw and a varnished wooden handle provide controlled, adjustable pressure. Plastic jaw pads protect workpiece surfaces from deformation and scratches. The tool weighs 1.4 kg and is suitable for bench work, glue-ups, temporary positioning and other workshop or DIY operations.

Advantages

The AWTools AW20155 combines a heavy-duty cast iron construction with a serrated zinc-plated rail for reliable grip and long service life. The trapezoidal-thread clamping screw ensures smooth, consistent pressure control while the varnished wooden handle offers comfortable operation. Plastic jaw pads reduce the risk of surface damage, making the clamp appropriate for delicate finishes. The moderate weight (1.4 kg) balances stability with ease of handling in typical shop and DIY settings.

How to use

Position the clamp so the jaws align with the workpiece surfaces to be secured. Turn the wooden handle to advance the trapezoidal-thread screw until the plastic jaw pads contact the material, then tighten to the required pressure while avoiding over-torquing. For glue-ups or assemblies, ensure even pressure distribution by placing clamps at appropriate intervals along the workpiece. Release pressure by turning the handle counterclockwise and remove the clamp once the joint or operation is complete.

Usage recommendations

Use the AWTools AW20155 clamp on clean, dry surfaces and check that plastic jaw pads are intact before each use. Avoid excessive torque to prevent damage to the clamp or workpiece. Store in a dry environment to protect the zinc-plated rail and cast iron arms from corrosion. For delicate finishes, place additional protective material between the jaw pads and the workpiece if needed.
