Irwin 17 Locking C-clamp 6 Inches Alloy Steel

Product Description

The IRWIN 17 is a locking C-clamp built for trade and industrial clamping tasks where a secure, repeatable grip is required. Constructed from alloy steel, this clamp delivers the structural strength needed to hold workpieces during welding, fabrication, and assembly operations. The 6-inch (150 mm) jaw opening provides wide versatility for clamping a range of shapes and stock sizes. Regular tips make it suitable for flat and contoured surfaces. Licensed HVAC, plumbing, and fabrication tradespeople rely on locking C-clamps like this one when both hands need to be free during a procedure.

The IRWIN 17 locking C-clamp is used across residential and commercial job sites wherever temporary clamping force is needed. Common applications include pipe fabrication, sheet metal work, structural steel assembly, and general mechanical repair. The wide-opening jaw accommodates varied material profiles, making this clamp useful in HVAC ductwork shops, plumbing rough-in staging, and electrical panel fabrication environments. It is sold individually (each unit) with a minimum order quantity of 5.

Installation Notes

This clamp is used by welders, fabricators, HVAC sheet metal workers, and general tradespeople. Before applying the clamp, ensure the workpiece surface is clean and free of debris to prevent slipping. Adjust the screw mechanism to match the workpiece thickness before engaging the locking action. Do not exceed the rated clamping capacity of the tool, and inspect the alloy steel body for cracks or deformation before each use.
