Violin/viola, yellow for inner bout. Opening 30 - 60 mm. The finest screw clamps available for assembling and repairing sensitive antique instruments as well as assembling new instruments. The clamping pads apply pressure directly over the instruments ribs to prevent damage to the edges of the top and back. The accuracy with which the clmaps can be set means significantly less clamping pressure is needed than when using conventional clamps. The plastic material used repels glue, is resistant to wear and flexible to prevent marring the surfaces of the instrument. The pads slide along grooves in the length of the spindles to allow quick adjustment of the clamp. The reversible upper pads allow the clamps to be used for gluing the ribs to the back of the instrument.
