Bessey Tools SQ-12 12 in Bar Clamp 6.75 lb

12 in bar clamp for welding and fabrication

The Bessey SQ-12 is a medium-duty bar clamp built for welding and fabrication tasks. Its 12 in maximum jaw opening and 5 1/2 in throat depth suit a range of workpiece sizes. The steel handle and steel bar are designed for long service life. Weighing 6.75 lb, it provides a solid feel during clamping operations.

Standard pads protect metal, wood and composites

The clamp ships with standard pads that grip without marring surfaces. This pad type allows direct use on metal, wood, plastics and composites without extra protection. No separate jaw covers or adapters are required for these materials. The accessory set therefore keeps the setup simple for mixed-material jobs.

Steel construction and fixed throat depth

All-steel handle and bar resist bending under load and stand up to shop environments. The 5 1/2 in throat depth is fixed, so reach is consistent but cannot be extended for deeper parts. The standard pad faces are not swappable, limiting customisation for specialised jaws. Weight of 6.75 lb makes it stable on the bench but less suited to overhead use.
