Wall Mounted Panel Clamps
This wall mounted panel clamp set frees up valuable workshop floor and bench space when clamping large panels, doors or frames. Panels can be clamped up to 1100mm wide by 120mm in depth, the length of which is only limited by the length of wall space available. The set comprises of a 1000mm rail that is fastened to the wall and two 1200mm metre clamps that sit in and slide along the rail. Individual boards are loaded one at a time into the clamps, which can be carefully positioned prior to clamping.
When fully loaded the handwheel is tightened, applying both vertical and lateral pressure to the boards, forcing the two sides of the clamp together, resulting in four directional clamping. This ensures that all components of the panel are kept aligned during gluing and gives the best possible fit eliminating any risk of gaps or bending in the panel caused by uneven clamping pressures. By keeping everything straight and in line, the panel will require only a minimum amount of finishing saving plenty of time.
Both the rails and clamps are manufactured from anodised aluminium which has been hardened to prevent the clamps from twisting or buckling under heavy load. For very long or very heavy panels you simply add additional sets to the length of the wall. These clamps save an enormous amount of space in the workshop leaving floors and benches free for other work. ©
