OVERVIEW

The Third Hand Every Welder Needs

When you are under the hood and trying to line up a tricky joint, you need a clamp that works as hard as you do. The PowerWeld PW6R 6-Inch Locking C-Clamp is that reliable third hand you can count on. Built for the real-world abuse of the welding shop, this clamp isn't just another pair of pliers; it's a dedicated fabrication partner designed to hold your work steady while you lay down the perfect bead.

We know that in welding, fit-up is everything. That's why the PW6R features heavy-duty swivel pads on the jaws. These pads automatically adjust to the angle of your metal, giving you a solid grip on square tubing, round pipe, or awkward angle iron without slipping. It also means you won't gouge up softer metals or leave nasty bite marks that you have to grind out later. The deep C-shape design gives you plenty of clearance to reach around brackets or flanges, letting you clamp the pieces together without the tool getting in the way of your torch or stinger.

Adjusting the pressure is simple with the knurled turn screw at the base of the handle. Crank it down for a vice-like grip on heavy steel, or back it off for lighter sheet metal work. The best part? It stays set. If you are doing a production run of twenty parts, you set it once and you are good to go for the whole batch. And when you are done with the weld, the guarded trigger release lets you pop the clamp off with one hand—snap it open, move to the next spot, and clamp it down again in seconds.

Made from tough, heat-treated alloy steel and plated to fight off rust and spatter, the PW6R is built to survive the sparks, heat, and grime of the shop floor. At 6 inches, it's small enough to fit in your back pocket or hang on your welding cart, but strong enough to handle serious fabrication jobs. Don't struggle with slipping parts or bad fit-ups; grab a PowerWeld PW6R and keep your focus on the puddle.

FAQ

The PowerWeld PW6R generally has a jaw opening capacity of approximately 0 to 2 inches, allowing it to clamp a wide range of material thicknesses.

Yes, this model features swivel pads that adjust to the surface of the workpiece, providing a secure grip on tapered or irregular shapes without damaging the material.

The clamp is constructed from high-grade, heat-treated alloy steel for maximum toughness and durability.

Absolutely. The all-steel construction is designed to withstand the heat and environment of welding. The nickel plating also helps resist spatter adhesion.

The PW6R features a classic trigger release lever on the lower handle. Simply pull the trigger towards the handle to disengage the locking mechanism safely.

Yes, the swivel pads make it suitable for woodworking as they distribute pressure and reduce the chance of marring the wood surface compared to standard locking pliers.

The knurled screw at the end of the handle adjusts the jaw opening and clamping pressure. Turning it clockwise increases pressure and reduces the opening, while counter-clockwise does the opposite.

While it is a hand tool, it can be used in conjunction with welding tables to secure small parts, though it does not mount directly into table fixture holes.
