It delivers 2,600 lb of clamping pressure with a 5.5-inch throat depth, making it well suited for gripping large or irregularly shaped workpieces. The T-handle design allows for controlled, repeatable pressure application. The frame and pad are constructed from forged steel, while the spindle is alloy steel, giving this clamp the structural integrity required for demanding production environments. A nickel finish provides basic corrosion resistance. The rail is sized at 30 mm x 15 mm. This is a tool installed and used by machinists, fabricators, and industrial maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GSI30 is used in metalworking shops, production assembly lines, welding setups, and heavy fabrication environments where high clamping force is required. Its sliding arm design allows for rapid jaw adjustment before final tightening, reducing setup time when working with varying stock thicknesses. The 5.5-inch throat depth accommodates deeper workpieces that standard C-clamps or light-duty bar clamps cannot reach. This clamp is appropriate for both benchtop fixturing and fixture-plate applications in commercial and industrial settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2,600 lb clamping pressure for demanding workholding applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5.5-inch throat depth accommodates large or deep workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eForged steel frame and pad for high structural strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel spindle resists deformation under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eT-handle allows controlled, precise pressure application\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel finish for basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSliding arm design enables fast jaw adjustment before final tightening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or direct fitment for applications requiring a Series GSI sliding arm bar clamp with a 30 mm x 15 mm rail and 5.5-inch throat depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnsure the workpiece surfaces are clean and free of burrs before seating the clamp pads to prevent marring or uneven load distribution. Tighten the T-handle by hand to the required clamping force — do not use additional leverage tools on the handle, as this can exceed the rated clamping load and damage the spindle or frame. Inspect the forged steel frame and alloy steel spindle for cracks or deformation before each use, particularly in high-cycle production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClamping Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2,600 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThroat Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRail Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 mm x 15 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: T-Handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forged Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePad Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Forged Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpindle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.26 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.31 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.62 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.81 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: GSI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GSI30\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696246391090,"sku":"GSI30","price":89.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b2e99481756f5ab11ad760c31d57e02d.jpg?v=1788340619","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-gsi30-sliding-arm-bar-clamp-5-1-2-in-2600-lb","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
