Product Details
8" Light Duty Wood Manual Bar Clamp by Wilton®. The 2000S-8C, 8-inch Light Duty F-Clamp Copper from WILTON® is at the top of the Spark-Duty series and is ideally suited to the industrial welding trade but works equally well as a light duty work holding tool in a variety of other applications. It has numerous innovative features such as the Wilton-Grip® which is an ergonomic grip that allows the user to apply up to 2000-pounds of pressure while minimizing hand fatigue in repetitive clamping tasks. This Wilton F-Clamp arm has been drop forged to withstand heavy use with minimal flexing, and the spindle is copper-plated to protect both the pads and spindle from damaging welding splatter and also extends the life of this light duty clamp. With an 8-inch clamping capacity, 4-3/4-inch throat depth, a 1-1/16-inch x 1/2-inch rail size and 3/4-inch spindle diameter, it can securely accommodate a wide variety of material sizes.

The legend of Wilton® begins in 1941, when Hugh W. Vogl, a Czech immigrant, founded the vise manufacturing company naming it after the cross street where the original company building was located: Wilton Avenue and Wrightwood Avenue in Chicago, IL
Hugh Vogl designed a 4” vise with a unique patented bullet design known at the time as the 40S Machinist Vise. The fine threaded spindle accurately fit in a horizontal anchored, unbreakable malleable nut. This created an even, central pull, which eliminated dead motion and unnatural strain on the nut. The thread on this vise was completely enclosed keeping it clean from contaminates and well lubricated for years of smooth operation. The steel key built into the base of the main body guides the movable jaw in a precisely broached keyway which is machined to .002” tolerances which eliminates wear and preventing side twist regardless of pressure exerted.
