Designed for cabinetry, furniture frame assembly, joinery, and shop workholding, this clamp offers 15% more holding force than standard 600 lb clutch clamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed with an upgraded, thicker steel bar and heavy-duty powder-coated cast-iron jaws, the TGC2.512 maintains alignment and minimizes flex during high-pressure glue-ups. The integrated two-piece metal slip-clutch mechanism locks the sliding arm positively on the rail to prevent slipping under load while allowing instant single-hand repositioning. A black oxide coated ACME threaded screw delivers wear-resistant, rapid thread engagement for efficient tightening. Non-marring plastic jaw pads protect workpiece faces, and the classic solid wood handle provides ergonomic grip leverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e700 lb Clamping Force:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reinforced jaw casting and rail profile generate 15% higher force than traditional 600 lb models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty Steel Rail:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expanded bar dimensions increase beam strength and resist bending over the 12 in. span.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowder-Coated Cast Jaws:\u003c\/strong\u003e Durable cast-iron construction ensures long service life in demanding shop conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eACME Threaded Spindle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black oxide coated screw allows fast, smooth pressure application without binding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-Piece Metal Clutch:\u003c\/strong\u003e Friction clutch plates grip the serrated rail securely for positive lockup and quick release.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNon-Marring Jaw Pads:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft plastic caps prevent crushing or marking of finished surfaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eErgonomic Wood Handle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smooth wooden grip allows comfortable hand torque during final tightening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChoose the TGC2.512 for medium-span 12 in. woodworking applications.
