ABSTRACT:
An improved C-clamp has a clamp body and a detachable setting mechanism. The clamp body has inner and outer legs with a hollow bore in the inner leg to allow passage of a stem having a work-engaging pad on its end therethrough toward an aligned fixed work pad on the outer leg. The setting mechanism for advancing the stem has a hand lever and hand grip that act in concert upon manual squeezing to step-by-step advance the stem. The setting mechanism removably attaches to the clamp body by a spring-biased lever that grips attachment pins on the body. A latch lever positioned on the inner leg of the clamp body causes a retaining lever to grip the stem when the latch lever is closed and to allow the stem to move freely when the latch lever is open.
