PW6R - 6-Inch Locking C-Clamp with Swivel Pads

Precision Clamping for Industrial Fabrication

The PowerWeld PW6R 6-Inch Locking C-Clamp is a fundamental tool designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional welding, metal fabrication, and industrial maintenance operations. Engineered from high-grade, heat-treated alloy steel, this tool offers exceptional tensile strength and durability, ensuring it withstands the mechanical stresses and thermal cycles common in welding environments. The robust construction prevents deformation under high clamping loads, maintaining alignment and accuracy for critical assemblies.

A defining feature of the PW6R is its C-clamp jaw configuration equipped with self-leveling swivel pads. Unlike standard fixed-tip clamps, these swivel pads articulate to match the surface angle of the workpiece. This capability is crucial when clamping tapered materials, angle iron, or irregular geometries, as it distributes the clamping force evenly, reducing the risk of slippage or localized surface damage. The wide jaw opening allows the tool to reach over lips, flanges, and other obstacles, providing clamping pressure exactly where it is needed without obstructing the weld zone.

The locking mechanism is controlled by a precision-threaded adjustment screw, allowing the operator to fine-tune the jaw gap and clamping pressure with exactitude. Once set, the tool retains its adjustment for repetitive tasks, significantly improving workflow efficiency in production settings. The classic trigger release system is designed for safety and ease of use, enabling one-handed disengagement even when the tool is under maximum tension. Finished with a corrosion-resistant nickel plating, the PW6R is built to resist rust and spatter adhesion, ensuring a long service life in the shop.

Whether utilized for temporary fixturing, grounding connections, or general assembly, the PowerWeld PW6R delivers the reliability and performance required by skilled tradespeople. Its compact 6-inch form factor makes it an indispensable addition to any tool chest, offering the power of a heavy-duty clamp in a size that fits into tight spaces.
