Gibraltar CCM00432 C-clamp 2 in Cast Iron Light-duty

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR CCM00432 is a standard-duty C-clamp built for light fabrication, assembly, and general trade work. The cast iron body pairs with malleable iron spindle and anvil components to deliver a rated load capacity of 400 pounds across a maximum opening of 2 inches. Throat depth measures 1-1/8 inches, giving adequate clearance for typical clamping tasks on flat stock, pipe, framing members, or fixture work. The 5/16-inch screw carries a black oxide finish to resist corrosion during storage and field use. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general tradespeople routinely keep a set of these on hand for temporary holds during layout and installation.

This clamp suits light-duty applications in residential and light commercial settings. It is sized for tasks that require a controlled, temporary grip on workpieces up to 2 inches thick, with a throat depth sufficient for most standard-profile stock. The compact form factor makes it practical for confined-space work where larger clamps are impractical. It ships individually and is available in single-unit quantities, making it easy to stock at the individual unit level without minimum-quantity constraints beyond one piece.

Key Features

• Cast iron body with malleable iron anvil and spindle for durability under repeated use
• 2-inch maximum opening capacity handles a wide range of light-duty clamping needs
• 1-1/8-inch standard throat depth provides adequate clearance for flat and profiled stock
• 400-pound rated load capacity appropriate for light fabrication and assembly tasks
• 5/16-inch black oxide screw resists corrosion and provides smooth thread engagement
• Compact, standard-depth profile suitable for confined or tight working areas

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-style C-clamp for general light-duty clamping applications across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general construction trades.

Installation Notes

C-clamps of this type are installed by hand without special tooling. Tighten the screw firmly by hand using the swivel pad against the workpiece to avoid marring surfaces. Do not use a cheater bar or impact tool on the screw handle, as this can crack the cast iron body or exceed the rated load. Inspect the clamp body for cracks before each use, particularly when working near rated capacity.
