Gibraltar S60C12 Sliding Arm Bar Clamp 2200 Lb 4-3/4 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR S60C12 is a heavy-duty sliding arm bar clamp built for industrial and trade applications where consistent, high-force clamping is required. It delivers 2,200 pounds of clamping pressure through an alloy steel spindle driven by a T-handle, giving the operator firm, controlled torque without slippage. The forged steel frame and forged steel pad material ensure the clamp body holds its shape under sustained load. A nickel finish provides corrosion resistance for shop and field environments. Weighing 4.03 pounds, the S60C12 is substantial enough for demanding work while remaining manageable for single-operator use. This is a professional-grade clamping tool appropriate for metalworking, fabrication, and heavy assembly operations.

The S60C12 is suited for fabrication shops, welding stations, and general metalworking environments where deep throat access is needed. The 4-3/4 inch throat depth allows the clamp to reach over material flanges, weldments, or stacked stock that shallower clamps cannot access. The sliding arm design lets the operator set the jaw opening quickly before applying final pressure with the spindle, reducing setup time on repetitive clamping tasks. This model belongs to the S-C12 series and is appropriate for both production and maintenance settings where repeatable clamping force is critical.

Key Features

• 2,200 lb clamping pressure for high-force fabrication and assembly work
• 4-3/4 inch throat depth provides deep reach over flanges and thick stock
• T-handle design delivers controlled spindle torque with reduced hand fatigue
• Forged steel frame and pad material for structural rigidity under sustained load
• Alloy steel spindle resists deformation under maximum clamping force
• Nickel finish for corrosion resistance in shop and field environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style sliding arm bar clamp in the GIBRALTAR S-C12 series, compatible with standard 27 mm x 13 mm rail configurations typical of this clamp family.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this clamp is appropriate for machinists, fabricators, and welders in industrial or shop settings. Ensure the workpiece and clamp pads are free of debris before applying clamping pressure to prevent surface damage or clamp slippage. Do not exceed the rated 2,200 lb clamping pressure, as overloading the spindle or frame can cause sudden part failure. Inspect the spindle threads and sliding arm rail for wear or damage before each use.
