Description
Assemble cabinet carcasses and edge-glue panels without adding excessive weight to the workpiece. The Magnum ALB48 provides reliable clamping pressure utilizing a lightweight aluminum bar, reducing the physical fatigue associated with heavy iron clamps. The cast-iron head locks securely onto the bar to prevent slipping during glue-up tensioning.
