Crescent Locking C-Clamp with Swivel Pads, Model C6CCSV

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This clamp works exactly as it should. I have used it mainly for holding jigs in place. It is very easy to lock and unlock and makes quick work of whatever it's used for. I also like the torque feature which can can be used to put very high pressure on whatever you need it to. Would definitely recommend if your in the marked for a good locking clamp.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was provided this locking clamp for a review. It's small and lightweight enough to toss into a toolbox, but seems to be very sturdily constructed. The swivel pads are nice for uneven surfaces, but they are a little wobbly if you're trying to clamp onto a thinner edge, just something to keep in mind but not an issue. Locking handle is strong and easy to use one handed. I can't comment on durability because I've only used them a few times, but they feel durable and higher quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this little clamp to use when making pocket screw holes. It fits the bill perfectly. Holds tight while I drill the holes and drive the screws. Has a hex head adjustment bolt on the handle for fine tuning pressure vs just using your hand. Only thing that I'd like to see on them is the option for coated pads or a cover for the pads for softer woods and more delicate surfaces. Overall very nice and will be buying more in different sizes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works perfect for small welding jobs. Great clamping power. Used this c clamp to hold small pieces together while welding. Held pieces tight and didn't slip. Easy to release when done. Handle cover has great texture for dexterity.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super functional and easy to operate. Has a very strong grip and fits in tight spaces easily. I used this to hold back pipes in a wall to install a sink and it worked perfectly. Would definitely recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently acquired this 6" locking c-clamp with swivel pads. I have had this type of tool in larger sizes and I think they are great. If I knew the 6" model was available I don't know why I never bought it. The swivel pads are new to me but I really like working with them. They cover more area and allow more adjustment than the traditional jaws. The jaws allow for flattening and leveling the work area. One of the first things I noticed was the smooth shiny finish. Not only is it fine looking but it is also easy to clean. I have found the c-clamp to be handy in woodworking and automotive uses. The release lever is covered in red plastic and is easy on the thumb or finger. The rivet on the lever could use some better finishing; it is sharp and catches the skin. The knurled knob adjustment prevents slipping. In addition the hex in the knurled knob helps with additional tightening. Overall this is just a super clamp.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this two/three weeks ago. I have used this limitedly during that time. First impression is it is very solidly built, the hinge alignment along with all pivot points work very well. The adjustment screw was a little 'rough' but backing out the screw brushing the threads and applying a silicone spray lubricant, the threads smoothed out and is a pleasure to use now. After a few uses, I used the locking C-Clamp to hold and align some angle iron for a spot weld or two. The clamp worked great especially the C part. Regular vice grips would have held the joint, but the C-Clamp could hold the joint and be out of the way for the welding. I also used the clamp on some woodworking. With the size of the clamp pads being on the smaller size, I was afraid it would mar the wood. I made a couple of 2" round pads out of some old paneling and placed them between the clamp pads and the work, no problems with the pads marking the final product. I plan to make more permanent pads out of some thin plastic just for the woodworking and softer sides of my hobbies. Two things really impressed me 1) the pads are parallel! 2) the hex head adjustment! Why hasn't someone thought of this years ago? The ONLY negative I can see with this clamp is the clamp release. For me it is very hard to get it to release the clamping force. I didn't count this against the tool because, I have several clamping pliers from a couple of vendors and this is the same story with them as well. I believe the main problem is the over 70 years I have on the hands used to release the release. I plan on purchasing a couple of the larger size C-Clamps in the near future. I highly recommend these, more expensive - probably, quality - definitely.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So, I know it's a “clamp” so talking about its specs are a bit limiting, but it's a quality clamp! I used a couple of them to marry a couple piece of 3/4” and 1/2” ply together and it provided great clamping power and no slippage! I also use it on my drill press, great little guy to have around.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great little clamp. I've been using this mostly in place of another brand of clamp associated with pocket holes... Works just as well for far cheaper. I don't have any negative comments about it... It's a locking clamp that does what it's supposed to do every time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the 6 inch locking C-Clamp about a month ago and couldn't be more happy. I use it for clamping together molds while making soft plastics for fishing and I couldn't ask for anything more. Great hold strength and easy to use.
