Clamping F-Style Bar Clamp Dedra 500x120 mm with two-material handle

The Clamping F-Style Bar Clamp Dedra 500x120 mm with two-material handle is a woodworking and assembly tool designed to hold workpieces steady during gluing, fitting and general workshop tasks. It features a 500 mm steel bar and a maximum throat depth of 120 mm, enabling clamping of panels and components of moderate size. The clamp uses a two-material ergonomic handle combining a soft grip area with a firmer core to provide controlled tightening and comfortable operation.

Advantages

The clamp provides even pressure distribution along the jaw thanks to a rigid steel bar and precisely machined sliding head. Its two-material handle reduces hand fatigue and improves grip security during repeated use. The quick-adjust sliding mechanism allows fast positioning on the 500 mm bar while the fixed jaw and screw-driven movable jaw deliver reliable holding force for glue-ups, assemblies and temporary fixturing.

Suitable for

• Gluing wood panels and edge-banding
• Holding parts during assembly and fitting
• Temporary fixturing for drilling, sanding or routing
• Clamping mouldings and frames

Key specifications

• Bar length: 500 mm
• Maximum throat depth: 120 mm
• Jaw type: fixed jaw and screw-driven movable jaw
• Handle: two-material ergonomic design (soft/rigid)
• Material: steel bar with machined sliding head

How to use

Slide the movable jaw along the bar to position the clamp so the workpiece sits between the fixed and movable jaws. Turn the ergonomic two-material handle clockwise to tighten the screw-driven jaw until the workpiece is held securely and pressure is even across the clamped surface. To release, turn the handle counterclockwise and slide the movable jaw away from the workpiece. For faster repositioning, use the quick-adjust sliding mechanism before final tightening with the handle.

Usage recommendations

Use protective pads or scrap wood between the jaws and delicate surfaces to prevent marking. Inspect the bar and sliding mechanism periodically for debris and lubricate lightly if movement becomes stiff. Do not exceed the clamp’s intended applications; apply steady, controlled tightening to avoid over-compressing glued joints.
