Bar clamp MODECO MN-37-201 50x200 mm woodworking clamp

The MODECO MN-37-201 50x200 mm woodworking bar clamp is a manual clamping tool designed for holding workpieces securely during gluing, assembly and drying. It offers a fixed throat depth of 50 mm and a maximum jaw opening of 200 mm, allowing users to apply steady pressure to panels, frames and joints. The clamp is suitable for bench and workshop tasks where controlled, stable clamping is required for accurate alignment and bonding of wooden parts.

Advantages

This bar clamp features a straightforward manual mechanism that provides reliable, even clamping pressure without complex adjustments. Its compact size and fixed throat make it easy to position on smaller workpieces and inside confined spaces. The tool is constructed to withstand routine workshop use and offers consistent performance for repeated clamping operations. The simple design reduces setup time and helps maintain alignment while glue cures or assemblies are fastened.

Suitable for

• Holding glued joints and edge-to-edge panel assemblies during drying
• Securing frames, mouldings and small furniture components for fastening
• General woodworking tasks in workshops, hobby stations and repair work
• Positioning pieces for drilling, routing or sanding where steady pressure is needed

Key specifications

• Throat depth: 50 mm
• Maximum jaw opening (clamping capacity): 200 mm
• Type: bar clamp for woodworking
• Operation: manual clamping mechanism
• Typical applications: gluing, assembly, holding for machining

How to use

Place the clamp so the fixed throat aligns with the area to be secured and open the jaws to accommodate the workpiece. Position protective pads or scrap wood between the clamp jaws and finished surfaces if needed to prevent marking. Tighten the clamp by operating the manual mechanism until the desired pressure and alignment are achieved; avoid excessive force that could deform thin or delicate parts. Release the clamp after adhesive has set or fastenings are installed, and inspect the workpiece to ensure no surface damage occurred.

Usage recommendations

For best results when gluing or assembling, use multiple clamps spaced evenly along the joint to ensure uniform pressure. Where possible, support long or flexible panels with additional backing to prevent bowing. Regularly check the clamping faces for wear and keep contact surfaces clean to maintain consistent grip.
