What is a clamp?
A clamp is a fastening device used to secure, support, grip, or compress one or more objects. | |
It is a tool designed to prevent any movement or separation between two objects so that work applications can be completed. Many applications result in pressure on the object, causing movement, so a clamp is often required to securely hold the workpiece in place. | |
It is a tool commonly used for DIY purposes, including carpentry and metalworking. | |
Various types of clamps are available for different purposes. While most clamps are designed for temporary use, permanent models are also available. | |
When it comes to do-it-yourself tasks, temporary clips are most commonly used as they are quick and easy when you need to briefly secure an object to work on or when the adhesive sets after joining the parts. |
