Wilton 14215 Drop Forged C-clamp Plated 2.125 in Opening

Product Description

The WILTON 14215 is a drop forged, regular-duty C-clamp designed for maintenance, production, and repair operations. The frame features an innovative geometry that maximizes structural strength while keeping the profile compact. The spindle is copper plated, and the Perma-pad contact surface resists welding spatter and corrosion, making this clamp a reliable tool in fabrication shops, welding stations, and general mechanical work. Clamping capacity runs from 0 to 2.125 inches with a throat depth of 2.375 inches. Nominal clamp pressure is rated at 3,500 pounds. This clamp is handled by welders, machinists, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople who need consistent holding force in repetitive operations.

The WILTON 14215 suits light-to-medium duty clamping tasks across industrial, commercial, and shop environments. Its plated construction makes it a practical choice for welding applications where spatter resistance extends tool life. The extra deep throat provides clearance for workpieces that standard-depth clamps cannot accommodate. This model is a direct replacement for part number 15978 and carries the Model Number 402-P designation within the Wilton C-clamp family.

Installation Notes

Install and adjust this clamp by hand before applying final torque with the T-bar handle. Ensure the Perma-pad is seated flush against the workpiece surface before applying clamping force to prevent slipping. When used in welding applications, keep the spindle and pad clear of direct arc exposure to preserve the plated finish. No power tools or special equipment are required for standard clamping use.
