How to Use a V-Block Clamp
V-block clamps help to hold both rounded and square materials in place. Each V-block clamp has a "V" shaped groove that cradles the clamped material, which is held in place by a locking bolt. Once the material is secured in the V-clamp, it can be cut, welded or ground.

Tips & Warnings
Review the capacity specifications of the V-clamp before use. Don't attempt to clamp materials larger than the clamping capacity of the V-clamp.
