Made in the USA. The only one like it in the world! Lifetime Guarantee On January 24, 2008, Lowell Thomas Tool, Inc Introduced a new generation bar clamp, called the Alpha Clamp. This patented tool is made in the United States; each tool is personally inspected for defects and has a lifetime guarantee with it. Invented out of necessity, the inventor was frustrated from working in the cramped V-berth of his sailboat using a standard bar clamp. He was so dissatisfied by those clamps' limited throat depth, strength, and overall usefulness that he invented the Alpha-Clamp, which uses two bars instead of one. The long 18-inch lower bar works just like a standard clamp: squeezing the handle pulls the bar tight pulling the trigger releases it. The Alpha-Clamp's extra bar moves independently, in two-inch increments when you push a button, this feature gives users up to a 12-inch throat depth (the span between the pads), something you'd get only in a much heavier, much more expensive C-clamp. Both of these bars are removable and reversible, so the clamp can be used for spreading, jacking, and hoisting operations up to 33 inches. The Alpha-Clamp has 4 brakes, double the number used by other manufacturers, so there's no fade in the holding power on loads up to 250+ pounds. The lower bar is stamped with a standard ruler on one side and metric on the other, and the jaw has been fitted with a horizontal and vertical level.
