GTV clamp forged steel 400x120 mm model HT3B916 for workshop and woodworking

GTV clamp forged steel 400x120 mm model HT3B916 for workshop and woodworking is a bench clamp designed to secure workpieces during woodworking, metalworking and general workshop tasks. The clamp features a forged-steel body and a screw mechanism that provides controlled, repeatable clamping pressure. With a clamping capacity of 400 x 120 mm, it is intended for fixing panels, frames and components on a workbench to ensure stable positioning during cutting, gluing or assembly operations.

Advantages

The forged-steel construction increases rigidity and wear resistance compared with cast or pressed alternatives, while the screw mechanism allows fine adjustment of clamping force for delicate or robust workpieces. The clamp’s dimensions and mounting interface are suitable for bench attachment, providing a stable base for repetitive tasks. Design details reduce play in the moving parts, supporting precise alignment and reliable holding during processing.

Suitable for

• Securing wooden panels for cutting, sanding and routing
• Holding metal parts for drilling and filing
• Fixing assemblies during gluing and bonding
• General workshop tasks requiring stable bench-mounted clamping

Key specifications

• Clamping capacity: 400 x 120 mm
• Material: forged steel body
• Clamping mechanism: screw-type for adjustable pressure
• Mounting: designed for bench mounting
• Typical applications: woodworking, metalworking and assembly operations

How to use

Mount the clamp securely to a workbench using appropriate fasteners for the bench material. Position the workpiece between the clamp jaws and turn the screw mechanism until the workpiece is held firmly without deformation. Adjust the clamping pressure incrementally to match the material and task. For repetitive operations, verify alignment and tighten consistently to maintain repeatable results. After use, release the screw to remove the workpiece and keep the screw thread clean and lightly lubricated to ensure smooth operation.

Usage recommendations

Use protective pads or soft jaw covers when clamping finished or delicate surfaces to prevent marring. Inspect the clamp periodically for wear, especially the screw thread and contact surfaces, and replace or service components if play develops. Do not exceed reasonable force that could deform the workpiece or damage the clamp; select clamping points that distribute pressure evenly.
