Clamping Bar (workshop clamp) Dedra 460 x 72 mm, model 12A026

Dedra clamping bar model 12A026 with dimensions 460 x 72 mm is a workshop clamp designed to hold workpieces securely during woodworking, assembly and gluing operations. The long bar provides even pressure distribution across panels, frames and laminates, enabling stable temporary fixing for precise alignment and bonding. Constructed for routine use in hobby and professional environments, this clamp is intended to simplify repetitive clamping tasks and maintain consistent pressure over the clamped area.

Advantages

The clamping bar delivers uniform clamping force along its 460 mm length and wide 72 mm contact area, reducing the risk of localized deformation on workpiece edges. Its straightforward mechanical design allows quick positioning and tightening, while materials and finish resist typical workshop wear. The clamp supports repeatable placement and steady holding power during curing of adhesives or while performing assembly and finishing operations.

Suitable for

• Edge gluing of panels and boards
• Assembly of frames and cabinet parts
• Securing laminates and veneers during gluing
• Temporary holding during cutting, routing or sanding
• Hobbyist woodworking and small workshop production

Key specifications

• Bar length: 460 mm
• Contact width: 72 mm
• Function: workshop clamping for holding, aligning and pressing workpieces
• Pressure distribution: designed for even force along the bar
• Intended use: woodworking, assembly and gluing tasks

How to use

Place the clamping bar across the workpiece so the wide contact face covers the area to be pressed, align parts to the required position and tighten the clamp mechanism until firm contact is achieved without over-tightening. For glue joints, apply even adhesive, position mating surfaces, then clamp and allow the recommended curing time before removing the clamp. When clamping thin or delicate materials, use protective pads between the clamp and the workpiece to avoid marking.

Usage recommendations

Use the clamp on a stable support and check alignment before applying full pressure. For repetitive tasks, mark the desired clamp positions to speed up setting. Inspect contact surfaces and maintain the moving parts clean and lightly lubricated to ensure consistent operation and prolonged service life.
