One-Hand Bar Trigger Clamp with 360-Degree Rotating Handle, 165 lbs. Force EHKM360-12","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bessey EHKM360-12 is an extended 12 in. medium-duty one-handed bar trigger clamp designed for professional woodworkers, cabinet builders, and finish carpenters who require extended reach with flexible positioning. Capable of generating up to 165 lbs. of clamping force across a full 12 in. clamping span, this tool provides firm, reliable pressure for drawer box construction, wide panel glue-ups, casework, and interior carpentry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeaturing Bessey's patent-pending 360-degree rotating handle assembly, the tool can be rotated around the rail to avoid table edges, bench dogs, or adjoining work surfaces. When assembling complex frames or clamping items in cramped quarters, the operator can spin the handle 180 degrees out of alignment with the jaw, allowing multiple clamps to sit directly side-by-side along the same glue line without handles obstructing one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fast push-button mechanism releases the fixed jaw for tool-free inversion into a wide-span spreading tool, providing an outward spreading range of 6 in. to 18 in. for frame alignment, door jamb installation, or casework leveling. Removable soft-touch protective jaw pads distribute force over a broad surface area to protect delicate wood grains, veneers, and painted finishes from pressure marks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor shorter clamping tasks requiring less bar overhang, the companion Bessey EHKM360-06 provides a compact 6 in. capacity with identical 165 lbs. clamping power. For heavy-duty commercial gluing requiring 300 lbs. of force and a deeper 3-1\/8 in. throat depth, select the Bessey EHKL360-12.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull 360-Degree Handle Rotation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rotates smoothly around the rail to position the grip for optimal leverage and comfort in tight spots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eParallel Gang-Clamping:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handle pivots 180 degrees away from adjacent clamps, allowing closely spaced multi-clamp setups along wide panel glue-ups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtended 12 in.
