Starrett 50593 Parallel Clamp 0.75 in Hardened Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 50593 is a parallel clamp designed for precision holding and clamping work in trade and industrial applications. Built with hardened steel arms, this clamp delivers firm, repeatable grip with a maximum capacity of 0.75 inches and a jaw length of 1.625 inches. The 0.656-inch reach and 0.66-inch throat depth make it suited for close-quarter clamping where jaw alignment and consistent parallel pressure are critical. Licensed trades and shop technicians use this style of clamp for assembly, soldering, holding small components, and fixture work where standard spring clamps lack the rigidity needed.

The STARRETT 50593 parallel clamp is appropriate for light-duty precision clamping tasks in electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and general mechanical trade work. Its compact jaw size makes it a practical hand tool for benchtop assembly, wire harness work, or any application requiring parallel jaw alignment on small workpieces. The hardened steel construction holds up under repeated use in shop and field environments.

Key Features

• Maximum clamping capacity of 0.75 inches for small workpieces and assemblies
• Jaw length of 1.625 inches provides a stable, parallel gripping surface
• Hardened steel arm construction resists wear and deformation under repeated clamping force
• Throat depth of 0.66 inches and reach of 0.656 inches suit tight clearance applications
• Compact form factor fits toolboxes and service bags for field use

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose parallel clamp suited for benchtop and field clamping tasks across trade disciplines requiring small-capacity, precision jaw alignment.

Installation Notes

No power shutdown is required for clamp use; however, always verify workpiece stability before applying clamping force. Hardened steel jaws can mar soft materials — use jaw pads where surface protection is required. Inspect the clamp mechanism before each use to confirm smooth, even jaw travel. This tool requires no installation but should be stored clean and dry to preserve the hardened steel finish.
