Question 1

What is the Stanley 0-84-816 11" Locking C-Clamps used for?

Accepted Answer

This 11" locking C-clamp provides a strong grip to secure materials during woodworking, metalworking, pipe work, and general clamping tasks. It supports workpieces up to about 4.5" thick for versatile applications.

Question 2

What are the key specifications of this clamp?

Accepted Answer

Key specs include: 11" length, forged steel construction, rust-resistant black oxide finish, swivel pads for uneven surfaces, and an adjustable hex-key screw for precise tensioning. The clamp is designed to hold materials up to 4.5" thick.

Question 3

How do I adjust the clamping force using the hex key screw?

Accepted Answer

Insert the hex key into the screw and turn clockwise to increase tension and counterclockwise to release. Make small adjustments to distribute pressure evenly along the clamp length for a secure hold.

Question 4

What materials can I clamp with this Stanley C-clamp?

Accepted Answer

It’s suitable for a variety of materials, including wood, metal, pipes, and some plastics. The swivel pads help adapt to irregular surfaces for a secure grip.

Question 5

How do swivel pads improve performance?

Accepted Answer

Swivel pads rotate to match the surface geometry, providing a larger contact area and more uniform pressure, which helps prevent marring and slip on uneven workpieces.

Question 6

What are common use cases for this 11" locking C-clamp?

Accepted Answer

Common use cases include woodworking joints, automotive repairs, pipe fitting, gluing tasks, and any project requiring a strong, adjustable hold on thick or uneven materials.

Question 7

How does this clamp compare to a shorter 6" locking C-clamp on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

The 11" clamp offers a longer reach and higher clamping capacity, making it better for thicker workpieces or larger assemblies. For smaller tasks, a 6" clamp is lighter and easier to maneuver. Compare options here: https://fepy.com/product/stanley-6-in-locking-c-clamp

Question 8

How does it compare to an Irwin 6" locking C-clamp on Fepy?

Accepted Answer

The Stanley 11" model provides a greater clamping range and length, while the Irwin 6" clamp offers compactness and ease of use for smaller projects. See a relevant alternative here: https://fepy.com/product/irwin-6in-locking-c-clamp

Question 9

What is the best way to store and maintain this clamp?

Accepted Answer

Wipe the clamp clean after use, dry it thoroughly, and periodically apply a light oil or lubricant to the screw threads to keep operation smooth and prevent rust. Store in a dry, organized workspace to avoid damage.

Question 10

Are there safety tips I should follow when using this clamp?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Do not exceed the recommended clamping capacity, keep fingers away from the moving screw, ensure the workpiece is stable, and use protective pads if clamping delicate surfaces to avoid damage.

Question 11

Can you give an example of a quick project that benefits from this clamp?

Accepted Answer

For gluing a thick wooden joint, place the pieces, position the clamp across the joint, tighten gradually using the hex key, check alignment, and allow adhesive to cure with the clamp maintaining steady pressure.

Question 12

Are there any surface types or materials I should avoid clamping with this model?

Accepted Answer

Avoid clamping extremely delicate, brittle, or highly flexible surfaces that could crack under pressure. Also avoid exceeding the 4.5" thickness limit and avoid using the clamp as a lever or pry tool.
