How to choose
- C-clamp capacity: the opening (1–4 in. here) must exceed the stacked thickness of the parts plus pads. Light-duty 400–900 lb clamps suit fixtures; 1,200–1,300 lb clamps handle heavier fab.
- Bar clamps: 12–24 in. bars reach across frames, doors and weldments that a C-clamp cannot span. Check throat depth as well as length.
- Locking C-clamps: IRWIN Vise-Grip and Milwaukee TORQUE LOCK styles stay set when you let go—useful for tacking and overhead work. Swivel pads protect finished surfaces.
- Deep throat: a deeper throat reaches farther in from the edge, which matters on wide plate and cabinet sides.
- Crew kits: most shops want a mix of small C-clamps at every bench plus a few long bar clamps and locking clamps in the shared crib.

C-clamp vs. bar clamp vs. locking clamp: which should I buy?
