UM165-C3 - Strong Hand Tools UM Series 16.5-Inch 4-in-1 Utility Sliding Arm Clamp

Heavy-Duty American-Made Welding Clamp

Welders Supply is proud to offer the Strong Hand Tools UM Series 4-in-1 Clamp (UM165-C3), a premium utility clamp made right here in the USA. For welders who demand reliability and efficiency, this clamp is a game-changer. It eliminates the need to clutter your welding table with multiple specialized clamps by combining four essential functions into one robust tool. Whether you are holding flat stock, securing round pipes, spreading a gap, or reaching over a lip, the UM165-C3 adapts instantly to the task at hand. Its rugged construction ensures it can withstand the harsh environment of a welding shop, resisting heat and spatter while maintaining smooth operation.

The UM165-C3 offers a 16-1/2 inch opening capacity, making it versatile enough for a broad spectrum of projects. The 5-1/2 inch throat depth provides ample reach, allowing you to apply pressure exactly where it is needed, away from the edge of the workpiece. With a clamping pressure rating of 2,400 lbs, you can trust this tool to hold parts securely in place, minimizing distortion during tacking and final welding. The sliding arm mechanism is designed for speed, allowing for rapid adjustments and quick locking, which is crucial for keeping production moving efficiently.

Beyond its standard clamping duties, the UM Series excels in difficult scenarios. The "Step-Over" configuration allows the clamp to bridge obstacles, securing pieces that standard C-clamps or F-clamps simply cannot reach. For pipe welders, the ability to convert into a pipe clamp ensures round stock is held firmly without rolling. The threaded jaw hole (3/8-16) opens up a world of possibilities, letting you attach magnetic V-pads or other accessories to tackle unique geometries. Super effective and super affordable, the Strong Hand UM165-C3 is an investment in quality and versatility that pays for itself by solving problems that would otherwise slow you down.
