  • What are the circled / highlighted bolts in these clamps called?

    Also does this type of clamp have a name.

    While procrastinating, I finally got round to trying to clean them. A first bath in acid has shown the bolts(?) are fucked and need replacing.

    Cheers

  • I know those as engineers clamps, but according to Google it’s a toolmakers clamp. Can’t help with the bolt, sorry. I’ve only seen them in those clamps. You could probably replace the right-threaded one with a normal bolt or studding but I seem to remember they have a plain bit at the end.

  • They appear to have various names including hand screw, parallel screw and toolmakers clamps.

    They made up of two jaws and two screws so no particular name if you are looking for replacement parts.
