Irwin 1964712 12" XP600 Bar Clamp Spreader
Extreme Pressure. Single-Handed Control.
The Irwin QUICK-GRIP XP600 12-Inch Bar Clamp is engineered for heavy-duty projects that demand massive force and precision. As the most powerful one-handed bar clamp available, the XP600 delivers a staggering 600 lbs of sustained clamping pressure. This is the go-to tool for gluing up thick timber, structural framing, and metal fabrication where a standard clamp simply won't hold.
Beyond its power, the 1964712 offers unmatched versatility with its Quick-Change button, allowing you to convert the tool from a clamp to a high-powered spreader in seconds—no tools required. The unique Power Lock I-beam bar reduces flexing and bowing under pressure, ensuring that your workpiece stays perfectly aligned until the job is done.
Key Performance Features:
- 600 lbs Clamping Force: Delivers industrial-grade pressure while maintaining easy one-handed operation.
- Quick-Change Power Button: Instantly converts the tool from a clamp to a spreader for versatile job site use.
- Full-Face Swivel Jaw: Distributes pressure evenly across the surface and stays parallel even at extreme loads.
- Non-Marring Pads: Protective pads prevent damage to finished surfaces and can be removed for specialized metalwork.
- Adjustable Foot: Provides extra support so the clamp can sit upright on a workbench or floor during layout.
- Heat-Treated I-Beam Bar: Carbon steel construction prevents bending and ensures long-term durability under maximum tension.
