Overview
Since not every workpiece has perfectly even edges, the Quick-Grip SL300 adds a swivel jaw that conforms to angled surfaces and combats the inevitable flexing that occurs with resin clamps. It also features a quick-release push button that makes it easy to convert the clamp to a high-performance spreader. A heavy-duty I-Beam Bar allows you to apply up to 300 lbs. of clamping pressure with minimal bending and flexing. All these improvements come without any added weight, so the clamp retains its chief benefit: simple one-handed operation.
Features:
- Quick-Release™ trigger provides fast positioning and maximum hand comfort
- High-tech resin construction for light weight and durability
- Heat-treated, black oxide carbon steel I-Beam Bar for extreme rigidity
- No-mar resin jaw pads are removable
- Swiveling jaw for angled workpieces

Why can't I get the quick release button to release so I can convert the clamp to spreader as advertised. The button says 'push' but the end does not release. Is there a secret?
my end piece of the clamp broke do you have replacements?
Can you post the throat depth and clamping width for each clamp? Is the listed length the length of the bar, or the maximum distance between the pads? This should really be provided by Irwin or Rockler rather than a question. This would be key information to know before buying any clamp. Length doesn't really tell you much if you don't specify length of what.
BEST ANSWER: The specified clamp size (e.g. 6", 12", 18", etc.) is the distance between pads at the largest possible opening. The throat depth, from the top of the metal bar to the center-line of the pivot point of the stationary pad, for all three of the mentioned clamp sizes, is approximately 2-1/4"

I have been using some smaller...
I have been using some smaller claps of another brand and was disappointed in their lack of clamping power. I have other clamps which twist to tighten,but with arthritis, I can barely use my hands the next day, My wife asked what was wrong with my hands and suggested I but this type. Well....I couldn't pass up an offer like that and bought 2 of each size. I am a retired mechanical engineer and am impressed with thier design and ease of use. The beam provides a very rigid means of stability for clamping power, and a large surface on the grips that is easy on my arthritis. Being able to use them as a spreader is very handy also. Great product!

Effective addition to clamp rack
Having bought a 6" and an 18" clamp to expand my collection of Quick-Grip clamps, I soon discovered that an additional clamp of each size was needed to be do the jobs for which I had purchased them. The 18" clamps, in particular, were very handy for temporarily securing cornice moldings on theater set walls while lining up the moldings and screwing them in place.

Great Clamps
Since I only do small projects, the 12" clamps are a perfect fit. I was lucky enough to get them on sale so I got four for the price of two! I love Rockler's sales. Next project is to cut pieces for my 7 year old granddaughter for a tool box she requested. She wants one like her older brother so will use that as a pattern for hers. Those clamps will come in handy while the glue dries. Thank you, Rockler!

Great clamp
These clamps work great. They adjust quickly and hold tightly. The articulated pad enables it to conform to various shapes while clamping. A must in any shop.
