Get a firm grip on your projects with these clamps

Are you in the market for a new clamp or vice? At vidaXL, we offer a wide range of clamps, such as C-clamps, F-clamps, sash clamps, bar clamps, bench vices and more. With such a big selection, we are sure we also have the clamp you are looking for. A metalworking vice is used to clamp metal instead of wood - its exact purpose is to hold metal when filing or cutting. Usually, these vices are made of cast iron. Browse through our range of clamps and vices and find what you need.

What are clamps used for?

Clamping tools are used for a variety of reasons, but most commonly, they are used for holding materials, such as metal or wood, together, while they are joined together. A clamp can also be used for holding a guide rail in place for your circular saw. If you are glueing wood together, you need to hold something in place before welding, or you need to keep a guide rail in place, then a clamp is exactly what you need. Clamps are designed to manually keep what you are working on secure and in place so you can safely weld, glue or similar.

Whether you are looking for a one-handed clamp, a sash clamp or a traditional vice for your workshop, you will find it at vidaXL. Our tools are affordable, so rest assured that your new clamp won’t break your budget.

Clamps for beginners

Woodworking has gained a lot of popularity in the last couple of years, which we think is exciting. However, it can also be challenging when you first start your woodworking journey:

• Which tools do you need? 

• Which clamp should you choose? 

• What are the must-have woodworking clamps for someone who is a newbie to woodworking?

We totally get it. With so many options to choose from, it can seem overwhelming. 

At vidaXL, we recommend that you start with simple clamps and vices - don’t go overboard and buy too many. Start with one or two clamps, and then you can always add to your collection, but in reality, most households only need one good, all-around clamp. 

Yes, we know that many experts say that you can never have too many clamps, but for a woodworking beginner, the opposite is true. It can be tempting to buy a myriad of tools when starting out, but less is truly more - at least until you know exactly what kind of work you will be doing.

So, start out with an affordable clamp. This will help you get off to a solid start, and then you can build your collection of clamps and other tools from there.

How many clamps do you really need?

We have already covered that if you are a beginner, you don’t need to go overboard and buy several clamps. Start small and then gradually build your collection of tools. However, if you are a little more experienced, you might feel it’s time to grow your toolbox with a new clamp or two. However, you still don’t need ten different clamps. Actually, you can accomplish almost anything with a strap clamp, four bar clamp and a pipe clamp. That being said, there are a couple of other essential clamps you may wish to consider investing in:

• Pipe clamps

• Bar clamps

• Strap clamps

While there are many other clamps on the market, we believe that these are the essential clamps that will help you accomplish any project you tackle.
