C-clamps

Ken Forging has recently expanded its inventory of C-clamps and bridge clamps.

Ken Forging is pleased to announce that we have acquired two companies: Erie Tool & Forge and Eagle Tool Group. These affiliated companies operated out of Springboro, PA and were known for producing high-quality C-clamps.

With this acquisition, Ken Forging is expanding its already impressive line of C-clamps, which will also enlarge our selections of service clamps, T-slot bolts, and similar tools. In offering these additional products, we will uphold the high standards that customers have come to expect from Ken Forging.

Quality is the top priority

A C-clamp is a device for holding wood or metal work pieces in such applications as woodworking, carpentry, and welding. Usually made of steel or cast iron, this device has a C-shape with a flat edge at one end of the C and a threaded hole with a large, protruding screw on the other end. A worker tightens the clamp onto the object being worked on to hold it in place. A bridge clamp is a rounder type of clamp in carbon, alloy, or stainless steel that is typically used with hosing and ducting or in construction.

These clamps are all domestically manufactured with American steel with full traceability in our 400,000-square-foot facility northeast of Cleveland. Many distributors prefer C-clamps that have been produced in the United States because of the superior quality of steel and workmanship, which provides many distinct advantages over non-domestic products on the market.

This acquisition will broaden our range of C-clamps, with sizes from ¾ of an inch to 12 inches. We now offer three different series of clamps: the 100, the 400, and the bridge clamp series. All three series have frames made out of 1141 steel black oxided.

These C-clamps will be among the products on display at the Ken Forging booth at Industrial Fastener Expo in Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas from Oct. 30 to Nov. 1. Come visit Booth #3017 and see what we have to offer.
