Clamping Bar / Carpenter's Clamp MODECO 120×1000 mm MN-37-250

Carpenter's clamp MODECO 120×1000 mm MN-37-250 is a clamping bar designed to hold workpieces securely during woodworking, assembly, gluing and routing. The tool combines a long steel bar with an adjustable clamping head to provide even pressure distribution and precise positioning across the clamped surface. It is intended for use in joinery, furniture making and DIY projects that require steady, flat clamping over a length of 1000 mm and a clamping width of approximately 120 mm.

Advantages

The clamping bar features a robust steel rail for rigidity and resistance to bending under pressure, and a moveable head that can be adjusted to apply consistent force without shifting the workpiece. The clamp’s design allows rapid positioning and tightening with a single-handed operation, reducing setup time. Materials and construction are chosen for long-term use in workshop conditions, offering predictable holding performance for gluing and assembly tasks.

Suitable for

• Holding boards and panels during edge gluing and panel assembly
• Fixing workpieces for routing, planing and sanding
• Securing parts during furniture assembly and frame joining
• Amateur and professional woodworking projects and workshop DIY tasks

Key specifications

• Clamping length: 1000 mm
• Maximum clamping width coverage: 120 mm
• Bar material: steel for improved stiffness
• Adjustable clamping head for fine positioning and pressure control
• Single-handed rapid tightening mechanism for faster operation

How to use

Position the clamp so the fixed end rests against one end of the workpiece and slide the adjustable head along the steel bar until contact is made at the desired clamping point. Fine-adjust the head to achieve even pressure across the glued or jointed surfaces, then tighten using the clamp’s handle or screw mechanism until the pieces are held firmly but without excessive force that could damage the material. For long assemblies, use multiple clamps spaced evenly along the joint to ensure uniform pressure distribution.

Usage recommendations

Inspect contact faces before clamping and protect delicate surfaces with scrap wood pads if necessary. Store the clamping bar in a dry place to prevent corrosion of the steel bar and maintain smooth operation of the adjustable head. When applying maximum clamping force, check alignment frequently to avoid misalignment of joined parts.
