Starrett 50594 Parallel Clamp 1-1/4 in Hardened Steel

Product Description

The STARRETT 50594 is a parallel clamp designed for precise, even clamping pressure across the full jaw face. With a maximum capacity of 1.25 inches and a jaw length of 2 inches, this clamp holds workpieces securely without racking or twisting. The arms are constructed from hardened steel for long service life under repeated use. A throat depth of 0.81 inches provides clearance for workpieces with moderate edge thickness. This clamp is well suited for finish carpentry, cabinet assembly, instrument work, and any application where jaw alignment and even clamping force are critical. Tradespeople and skilled technicians who need reliable, repeatable clamping reach for this style of parallel clamp.

The STARRETT 50594 is used in woodworking, light fabrication, and precision assembly operations. Its compact jaw size makes it effective for smaller workpieces, delicate joints, or tight work areas where a larger clamp would be impractical. The parallel jaw design keeps faces flush and square during glue-up or fastening operations, reducing the need for repositioning. It is appropriate for both bench work and field assembly tasks.

Key Features

• 1.25 inch maximum clamping capacity for small to mid-size workpieces
• 2 inch jaw length distributes clamping pressure evenly across the contact surface
• Hardened steel arm construction resists wear and deformation over extended use
• 0.81 inch throat depth accommodates workpieces with edge thickness clearance requirements
• Parallel jaw action prevents jaw splay and maintains square clamping alignment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose parallel clamp suitable for woodworking, light fabrication, and precision assembly applications requiring controlled, square clamping force.

Installation Notes

No power source or trade certification is required to use this clamp. Inspect jaw faces before each use to confirm they are clean and free of debris that could damage workpiece surfaces. Apply clamping force gradually and evenly to avoid shifting the workpiece during setup. Do not exceed the rated maximum capacity of 1.25 inches.
