Corner Clamp STANLEY Bailey Corner Clamp Heavy Duty model 0-83-122 for 90° joints

The STANLEY Bailey Corner Clamp Heavy Duty model 0-83-122 secures two workpieces at a precise 90° angle for assembly, gluing or fastening. Designed for woodworking and joinery, this corner clamp holds frames, cabinets and boxes in stable alignment so you can insert screws, dowels or adhesive joints with both hands free. Its durable cast-zinc construction and clamp mechanism deliver consistent clamping pressure and repeatable results for repeated shop or site use.

Advantages

The articulating head adapts to workpieces of equal or varying thickness to form accurate right-angle joints. A bimaterial tri-lobular handle provides improved comfort and enables higher torque when tightening. Heavy-duty cast-zinc components increase durability and resistance to everyday workshop forces. Mounting holes allow the clamp to be fixed to a work surface for steady positioning during longer operations. The patent-pending reversible head design gives the additional function of a parallel clamp for greater versatility.

Suitable for

• Assembling and gluing wooden frames and picture frames
• Joining cabinet carcasses, drawer boxes and furniture components
• Holding mitred or butt joints square while fastening with screws or dowels
• Repeatable right-angle positioning for small cabinetmaking and joinery projects
• Use on benchtop or fixed to a work surface for hands-free operations

Key specifications

• Clamping angle: fixed 90° alignment for two workpieces
• Body material: heavy-duty cast zinc for structural durability
• Handle: bimaterial tri-lobular design for improved grip and torque
• Head design: articulating, reversible for parallel-clamp function
• Mounting: holes in the frame to secure clamp to a work surface

How to use

Position the two workpieces into the 90° corner formed by the clamp head. Adjust the articulating head as needed so both faces are flush and the thickness difference is accommodated. Tighten the tri-lobular handle until the pieces are held firmly without crushing the material; check alignment with a square if precise accuracy is required. If continuous access is needed, fasten the clamp to the bench using the mounting holes before inserting parts. To use the reversible head as a parallel clamp, change the head orientation according to the product’s reversible setting and re-clamp as required.

Usage recommendations

For best results when gluing, apply clamps at multiple points around the assembly to distribute pressure evenly and avoid local crushing. Use sacrificial pads or thin scrap between the clamp jaws and finished surfaces to protect the workpiece. Regularly inspect and clean the clamping surfaces and hardware to maintain consistent pressure and alignment over time.
