Irwin Industrial Tool Co 1964720 24 in Bar Clamp Spreader

Product Description

The IRWIN INDUSTRIAL TOOL CO 1964720 is a medium-duty, one-handed bar clamp and spreader built for trade professionals who need reliable clamping force in tight workspaces. It delivers 300 pounds of clamping force across a 24-inch bar length, with a 3-3/16 inch throat depth that handles a wide range of material thicknesses. The I-beam bar construction resists flexing and bowing under load, keeping workpieces held firmly in position. A pistol grip design and quick-release trigger allow full one-handed operation, freeing the other hand for positioning material. Removable, non-marring pads protect finished surfaces from clamp marks during assembly or repair tasks.

This clamp is suited for woodworking, cabinetry, framing, and general fabrication work in residential and light commercial settings. The removable swivel jaw self-adjusts to angled surfaces, making it practical for non-parallel clamping situations. A quick-change button converts the unit from clamp mode to spreader mode or enables use with compatible one-handed bar clamp accessories, expanding its utility across multiple job types. It ships in a package quantity of 5 units, making it a practical stock item for tool cribs and service vans.

Installation Notes

No dedicated trade license is required to use this clamp, but proper clamping technique reduces workpiece damage and improves joint quality. Always confirm the clamp is fully engaged and the swivel jaw is seated before applying full clamping pressure. When converting to spreader mode, verify the quick-change button is fully locked before applying outward force. Do not exceed the rated 300-pound clamping force.
