Bar Clamp Erdi HOGERT 60 x 200 mm – lever-operated woodworking clamp

The Erdi HOGERT lever-operated bar clamp with 60 x 200 mm clamping capacity is a hand tool designed for holding and aligning wooden parts during woodworking, assembly and glue-up operations. Its lever mechanism enables quick one-handed tightening and release, providing controlled pressure across the clamping area. Constructed for repetitive use in joinery and carpentry tasks, this clamp is intended as a temporary fastening solution when accurate alignment and steady holding force are required.

Advantages

This lever-operated clamp combines fast single-hand operation with stable pressure transmission across the clamping jaws, reducing the time needed to position and secure workpieces. The compact 60 x 200 mm clamping range covers common small-to-medium tasks while the lever drive ensures repeatable clamping force with minimal hand strain. Materials and finish are selected for practical workshop use, delivering reliable performance for gluing, assembly and trimming operations.

Suitable for

• Holding small-to-medium wooden parts during glue-up and assembly
• Temporary fastening for joinery and cabinet making tasks
• DIY projects requiring quick one-handed clamping and alignment
• Carpentry jobs where repeatable pressure and fast release are needed

Key specifications

• Clamping capacity: 60 x 200 mm
• Operation: Lever-operated, one-handed tightening and release
• Intended use: Woodworking, assembly, glue-up
• Grip style: Fixed bar with sliding jaw and lever actuator
• Typical clamping force: suitable for temporary holding and alignment in carpentry

How to use

Position the clamp so that the fixed jaw and sliding jaw embrace the workpieces to be held. Use the sliding mechanism to bring the jaws into approximate contact, then operate the lever to apply the final clamping pressure until the parts are aligned and secure. Release is performed by reversing the lever action to free the sliding jaw. For glue-up, maintain applied pressure until adhesive has set according to the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

Usage recommendations

Avoid over-torquing; apply only the pressure required to hold parts securely. Protect delicate surfaces with thin padding between the jaws and the workpiece. Inspect the clamp regularly for wear on the sliding components and lever pivot, and keep moving parts clean and lightly lubricated for consistent operation.
