For many projects, the right body clamps are essential to increase stability when working. Workpieces can be clamped very comfortably and gently with body clamps. To further increase the comfort of the clamping process, you should also ensure that the body clamp has a high clamping force. A constant and even pressure on the workpiece is essential, especially when building frames and gluing. Due to the wide clamping jaws, body clamps guarantee a continuous distribution of the clamping force over the entire workpiece. The parallel clamping surfaces also ensure gentle clamping of the material.
