Description
Dubuque Clamp Works continues to manufacture their clamps entirely in the USA. DCW bar clamps are made of extremely high quality extruded aluminum which provides both the rigidity and strength needed during clamping. They match many of the other bar and panel clamp's 1000 lb. clamping pressure, while weighing a fraction of the competitor's weight. The weight issue can be very important when working alone. The bar itself measures 1-3/8" H by 7/8" W and has notched out detents for the sliding tail stop spaced in 9/16" intervals. Clamping pressure is applied through a 1/2" screw outfitted with a wing nut type handle. Maybe one of the best features of these clamps is their ability to resist glue build up. The aluminum will not corrode and any dried glue can be easily chipped off.

Dubuque Aluminum Bar Clamps
These Dubuque aluminum bar clamps are my favorite by far. They are light weight and incredibly strong. After years of using pipe clamps I stumbled on to these decided to try a couple and quickly learned these are the best American Made clamps available. Although light weight, these clamps are rigid and don't flex and bend when tightened. I have 4', 3', and 2' models. I highly recommend Dubuque Aluminum Bar Clamps.

Quality clamps
I've owned many types and brands of clamps, over the decades. These are the best I have used to date. They are simple, tight, and sturdy. They give equal clamping pressure, instead of just at the "point" of closure. I would recommend these clamps to everyone.
